Ahh Bronk, I understand and can probably torture you a bit.  Got to know all those Spit XII drivers and spend time with em.  Grew up next to Crystal Airport in Crystal Minnesota where Jack Sandberg had his racing P63 Tipsy Miss so I had a KingCobra flying over the house all the time :)

And back when I was taking flying lessons at the same airport I had the pleasure of landing behind a Corsair that was stopping by Sandberg's hanger for some engine work.

Oh to be 16 again :)

Here's an image of her as I remember her.  It's from this site:

If you look you can see the hanger at Crystal airport.  It was like Alladin's cave for me.  I remember a day where he had the EAA XP51 there, he had a P51C in pieces by the hanger (I snuck in the cockpit of that one) and a P51D out front, along with the 63.

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
