Another beautiful lady - but with a RED nose!

[CJ]

40 minutes of pure delight. It will take a year to wipe the smile off of my face.

More images and videos to follow.

If I was so fortunate, I think I would have that smile on a lot longer than that.

Wow that would be a hell of an experience!
Is that a P51 Mustang. Yea, yea, i know you told me a week or 2 ago that you were going to ride in one but I forget what plane you said it was. I slept since then, what can I say?

Yep, it is the lady P-51 called 'Red Nose' based at the 'Commemorative Air Force.'

Unfriken believable flight! 40 minutes or so of pure bliss. Buzzing the airport @ 260 knots was a blast. Doing 4 G hard turns over my town was great also.

BTW - what a fantastic and smooth flight.

Buzzing my little home town @ 1000 feet, making a 180 and reversing course going back was great. The best part was seeing all the people stopping on the side of the road or just standing in the parking lots looking up and snapping pictures.

My pilot was great, an F16 Major from Afghanistan. Unfortunately he is being redeployed in three months.

Making fast passes down the runway and entertaining the crowd was great.

The 6.5 G pull just made me laugh, I wanted more but even though the aircraft could go more that was all they could do due to not stressing the aircraft.

All in all, a great day!

Cross another off of the bucket list!
