Cool Photo; F-15 and P-51
« on: March 23, 2006, 01:45:17 PM »
Have never sen this one before.

More P-51 images

I didn't know an F-15 could fly slow enough without flaps to keep with a P-51. Guess I'm uninformed. :D

Yeah, I saw that live  at an airshow. The F-15 had to drop it's flaps and gear to stay steady with the 51. Cant remember but I think It was to celebrate the 60th aniversary of the P-51. I've also seen pictures of it done with a 38 and a F-15.

Couple years back during the airshow part of Fair St. Louis they had a Mustang do a flyby in formation with an F-15. I'm disappointed they didn't have the pilot run her through her paces.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Surprising that the wake turbulence directly behind & below the F-15 didn't pwn the Mustang
