P-51's, Aces: A Special Gathering
------------ fwd ------------
Few aircraft are as legendary as the P-51. The aircraft and the pilots who flew them during WWII are disappearing. This coming weekend, there will be a very special gathering in Columbus, Ohio. They expect 120 P-51s to attend along with many of the 80 or so remaining WWII Aces. See this link for details: http://www.gml2007.com/index.asp =========== end fwd =========== |

Ever hear of the Spitfire and Me Bf 109 plus Fw-190 that preceded it? BTW, your legendary is only the D-model. This coming weekend, there will be a very special gathering in Columbus, Ohio.

See this link for details:http://www.gml2007.com/index.asp =========== end fwd =========== Gee, will they have models of Luftwaffe airfields with Me-262s taking off or landing with Mustangs pouncing on them? If not, you will waste your money Rob |

Rob- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Good heavens, Rob..lighten up. All it was was an announcement on REC soaring to announce something of interest to alot of us. Not worth fighting the war again or nitpicking one "legendary" plane over another. The TA152-H1 could out perform them all so what's your real point? Kurt Tank's last wartime creation at least looked like a sailplane, which is what we speak here. Gary Adams |
