I'm blessed to live in a part of the country where on any given day......I will see P-51's in the air.
Usually you hear the whistle of the dive....before you hear the growl of the climb. 
Great post OP. |

That has to be one of the Top-5 methods of turning petroleum products in to noise that man has yet devised.

Awesome video. Awesome machines. And the men that flew it for it intended purpose... wow. Can't even imagine the fear/adrenaline that had to be flowing through their bodies. |

OK, now that we have the planes, and the pilots, some big movie house needs to round up the half dozen or so Messerschmitt's and B-17s that are airworthy, get a good director, a few big name stars, and make a bad-ass movie.
I am sick to death of CGI air war films, they just suck. |

352nd was well represented there... "Hell-er Bust" is one of the sexiest ones out there...  However "Miss Helen" is an original 352nd bird flown by Ray Littge... sent to Sweden after the war and then to Israel where it was recovered from a playground... Restored to her wartime glory...  |
