Ok, what P-51 made it's first flight yesterday. I'm assuming it might be Boise Bee.

No Pics? Didn't Happen! :shock: :lol:
Knew an old fellow who was ground crew in England with the Mighty Eighth, he swore that German Jets were just a propaganda thing and didn't rally fly.( I never asked him about the moon landings or if the world was flat!)
