Well, I just got ANOTHER annual pass, so I took the shrimp out for the day to spend some time with him. We got there just in time for the daily flight, this time the P-51D. Needles to say, Alexander was thrilled... Cheesy

Running the engine up...

Taxiing down the runway...

Unfortunately, my batteries died just after takeoff, and by the time I got new ones in, I had missed it. Did get just the end of the takeoff though...

On final...

Me and the boy and Kermit. Can you imagine not only flying your own warbirds EVERY day, but then getting to write it off of your taxes as a business expense? Grin

I SERIOUSLY hope I'm not really that fat... Wink

Man, it sucks when batteries die on you! The first shot is magnificent!

The P-51 is one of the planes I'd really love to see in real life.

Did you manage to get happy snaps of any of Kermits Spits?

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
