I was photographed by @airbaer150 (Mike Baer) at C09 the other day and wasn't aware until someone told me!

It was the perfect angle, wasn't it? Excellent shot! I'd have a framed enlargement made of that one. Always a cool feeling seeing this paint scheme and having it remind me of flying in the actual P-51 with Elmer Ward. That used to be my wallpaper before I started building my RV-8.Its that retractable gear that make it look so fast! Great shot.

Mike,
That is a great picture at the perfect angle. Quite a snazzy paint job! I see you are probably a UAL guy based in ORD? I retired last year and am so glad I am not commuting to work any more. 22 years getting on RJs to go to work was not my idea of fun but now I am a full time RV pilot so life is good!
