Move day...on our way to Hazleton, PA this afternoon...got some shots of the dataplate and the 17 from the 25...the 17 was looking pretty small out there. Unfortunately the camera didn't really pick up the fall colors...

When the CF came to Pittsburgh a while back, I had the pleasure of talking with a bunch of them. One night I found myself in a hangar with the P-51. All by myself, and no other aircraft. I took some amazing pictures. it is an amzing restoration.

Beautiful shots!

One more month of FBO's, Museums, old guys and young punks...It seems like forever since you guys were in Dallas...and I get to go home every night.

Thanks for what you guys do out there on the road with your airplanes!
Wonderful program!
