From what I've read this is your Father's aircraft? And he's a retired USAF General?

Awesome!

How much time have you got in it? I've only gotten a ride in a -51, I envy you!

I know some guys in the P-51 community. What's the tail number or nose art on your Dad's airplane?

I may have some pictures of it if he does airshows.

Unless Dad is Reg Urschler who owns "Gunfighter".  Only retired General with a 51 that I'm aware of.

What did Frank Borman retire as?  He owns a 51.  And one of his co-Apollo crewmates also owns a 51.  Can't think of the name off the top.

Which half they selling?  

Could be neat to have the front half of a P-51 sitting in the yard on blocks.. you'd be the coolest redneck around.

Hey, he's a ATP. Maybe he's out on a trip.

Give him time. I'm sure he'll be back and tell us which airplane.

" for you little people."


A nasty, caustic answer to a nice, normal question?   IMO that, and his replies in the autopilot topic, are confirmation he's slinging around buckets of horse dung.


 I'd bet his "dad's" old plane has the name "Lazy Susan" on the nose.
