Great photo! Still a great war bird... even if it is a trainer.

Beautiful plane. I saw it July 4 2016 in Seattle. Also had a chance to ride in the 909 B-17 by Collings Foundation.

Loved every minute of it!

The sound of that Merlin is even better from the back seat especially when the pilot turns onto the runway and says "This is a Mustang - giddy-up!"
