My buddy called me to come see his new ride at his nearby hanger. Hurry Home Honey. A very well known storied P51. I asked if I could run her up but that was a no! lol While there I also got some shots of his Tucano. What a cool airplane.

Interesting P63. Unfortunately it crashed in 1990 in France killing the pilot.

I recently went to Tucson to help my brother on one of his many projects, a B23 bomber converted to a transporter that was previously owned by Howard Hughes. It is being restored back to the way it was when he flew it. He was also doing restoration work on a TBM but we did not get to work on that during my visit.

Wow! Is this a hobby for your brother or what he does full-time? Very impressive
