Default Tom Cruise's P-51 Mustang

I remember Col (later General) Reggie Urschler used to fly someone in the
back occasionally in his P-51 (Gunfighter). He flipped it on landing one
time, fortunately he and his passenger made it out OK.
There's a good article by someone that had a ride in the back of
"Gunfighter" at this web page;

There used to be one flying out of Auckland, New Zealand. $300 dollars for
a ride and some aerobatics over the harbour. It was sold back to the US
about 5 years ago after the trust operating it couldn't afford to keep it
flyable.
