A nice afternoon at the field, wind with some gusts, mostly straight down the runway.

Rob, David, Bruce, and a couple others were there.

Lots of nice landings!

We had a great day of flying (they are usually great if you don't bring something home in pieces). This P-51 is quickly becoming  one of my favourite planes. It is stable and nice to fly, much like the earlier Blondie, but with more presence in the air. Scale aerobats. Lands at walking speed. Takeoffs require a generous amount of right rudder and a gradual increase in throttle. If you are the fence about getting one, as I was for months, go for it, you will love it.
What could possibly go wrong?
