Thanks and my pleasure! I did a cockpit tour and the museum had re-enactors around. That's how I got the shot of the tail-end Charlie.

Wonderful Aircraft. Absolute legend in the sky. I hope it continues to receive lots of support from the Community.

This past weekend at the Texas A&M game they had a P-51 fly over. I stood there in awe. The roar of the engine was amazing.

I agree. This is probably the best picture I ever took.

I was driving to work two weeks ago when I saw a B-17 flying overhead at a low altitude it caught my attention so much I pulled off the road to get out and watch this bird fly over head. At the same time a B-24 was taking off from a local airport.

There is something very deep and VERY emotional seeing these all war birds flying and to think of the men who flew them in WW II.

Yes it is very expensive to keep these very few airplane flying but no static display can match seeing these things actually flying.

Thank you to all the people who work very hard to keep these very few airplanes flying.

She flies over my head all of the time and I periodically give some money for her livery.

My kids did a sleep over in the WHM with their cub scout group. One of the nice things about living down here.
