When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

Around 1970 I took a picture of the Miss America P-51 (in the top right of the poster), in the early 80's I volunteered at the Abbotsford International Airshow. 
Bud Granley took me up for a spin, at the time it was the world's fastest piston powered plane. 
Unbelievable thrill.  Power dives, hanging it on the prop, upside down.

So awesome !
In 2017 they broke the 500mph barrier at Reno. both Mustangs.

Louise (Skidoo P38) is also parked in Chino in a separate hangar. I need to dig out my pics.



20 yrs ago I was able to groundcrew on our local (Red Bull) Corsair. The Flying pulls operate several warbirds, among them a P38 that was formerly known as the  'white Lightning' Air Racer and a B25 and a DC6. have seen all of them several times.

Ain't these awesome?!

Here they are flying over the Attersee (lake in Salzburg/Upper Austria). I've seen them in low level flight over another adjacent lake.

Fond memories of going to California / Disneyland (in a brand new Galaxie 500) in 1964, in southern Oregon we were stopped for construction on the highway, a P-38 was buzzing around overhead while we waited.  My father telling us stories about how great a plane it was.
Still playing with them.

Cool pics guys, but let us not forget the other side of the coin and those who flew and gave their lives in these magnificent machines...
