Wings over Gillespie 2010

Yup...the last one was a NA-50. Thanks for all the great comments all!

. . . good images ! That P-51 looks like it was dipped in chrome !

Believe it was an North American NA-50. I think it was a replica though. The real ones are unfathomably rare IIRC.

Yeah, it's a T-6 with clipped wings, modified canopy/turtle-deck and a geared R-1340 all trying to make it look like the NA-50 series. It's gotta be one heck of a machine.

Anyway, I'd say you did pretty well on the panning and all of the shots in general. I like the post work you did on the reenactors pictures in your galleries.

wow... great pics... it's like being there... minus the sounds... lol...

Nice shots, that's one very shiny Mustang.

FAA registration information for the aircraft shows it as a Harvard Mark IV built by Canadian Car and Foundry in 1952. The Harvard was the export version of the T-6...

Sorry, once you loose the paint you can't tell a Harvard from a SNJ from a AT-6 from a T-6 (at least in a picture). I did my best!
