OK lets clarify the B/C model stuff.  There is a P51C flying at Duxford in England, painted as a 352nd FG bird "Princess Elizabeth"

Kermit Weeks owns a P51C that is a flyer down in Florida at Fantasy of Flight.  His is painted as a Tuskeegee airmen P51.  It used to be better known as Paul Mantz's racing Mustang from the late 1940s.

The Southern Minnesota Wing of the CAF had a P51C that crashed with the pilot being killed not too long ago.  It is being rebuilt to fly.

There is a guy in Idaho with a P51B/C that is being restored to flight and will be painted as 4th FG Ace Duane Beeson's "Boise Bee"



Jack Roush of Nascar fame, owns 3 P51s.  2 are P51Ds painted as Yeager's "Glamorous Glennis", and Anderson's "Old Crow"

He is restoring a P51B to flight that will be painted as John England's "U've Had it"  It will have a Malcom hood.

All three are in 357th FG markings

There was a new build 2 seat P51B that flies done in 4th FG Markings.

There is at least one other P51B that was recovered from a lake near one of the Florida training bases that may be restored to flight as well.

I'd survive having a center-tooth if I could just have one of his millions or a night or two with a couple of his ex girlfriends. :p

I'd just like to meet him for a cup of coffee. He seems like a nice enough fella.

May the Scientologist weenie crash it, so he can see if all that BS he spouts about his religon is right.

Can he even fly it? You'd think that short frac wouldn't be able to see over the dashboard.

His real name is Thomas Cruise Mapother IV.

The Feds list a Thomas C Mapother but the license was issued in 1947. Has to be his Dad or something. It's just a PPL/SEL.

The Feds do list one Thomas Cruise

The dude is a Scientologist!

http://www.xenu.net/

Along with John Travolota, Michael Jackson, etc...

Scientology is truly an evil cult. They have kidnapped, raped, killed, brainwashed, etc. L. Ron Hubbard was a drug crazed lunatic who managed to brainwash thousands. And even now they continue to try to sue the crap out of anyone who tries to expose them. They even sued Google to remove them from searches!

I boycott any known scientologists.
