It's a new one -- been discussed quite a bit on WIX already. It's been a long term project by the Paul family down in Nampa, Idaho. It is about done -- has been run but not had its first flight yet. They are waiting for the final paperwork from Washington, which should come through soon.
It is gorgeous! I love O. D. Mustangs, and I like them in flat paint, and this is just what I like! I'm looking forward to seeing this one in the air...

I'm so glad that you got photos of the event, and thank you for sharing them, Neal. "Bee" looks excellent - armor plate now in place as well! If you have anymore you would be willing to share, please do!

Seriously.....why does that mis-information still remain on the registry on this board?

JC -- I have to thank you and your family for having such remarkable friends! The whole weekend felt like one long fascinating conversation.
I especially enjoyed meeting Col. Bud Anderson and hearing his talks each day. It was a pleasure watching the kids and young people in the audience while he spoke -- they were really paying attention...
What I really want to know, though, is why anyone with two Hawks to fly, and soon a lovely -B model Mustang, would risk life and limb zooming around his ramp on this thing?!??
Your Mother's reaction?
Sue Paul did a great job announcing, as always...
and it was really nice to hear the voice of my old friend Sandy Sanders on the PA system for a while!
