Posts made past 02:30PM 12/30/24 won't be on the new site!

Well, things are going to happen in rapid succession now... I'm going to do a final database backup at 2:30PM CST today. After the vBulletin team gets it - the new site should be operational "with all posts" soon thereafter. Then following a series of checks, and if all goes well, I'll post a link to the new forums here soon.

Thanks for your patience,

The Admins

  • The "NEW" youngest Mustang pilot

    Steve Hinton Jr soloed in a P-51D Mustang in Chino California. Young Steve is 19 years and 7 months old... making him the youngest Mustang pilot in the world! (Steve's Dad... soloed a Mustang at 19 years 8 month... Young Steve beat him... something his dad is very proud of).



    How awesome is that... Hmmmm...
    Wonder how long before he gets to take a hop in Strega???

      What about Dirk Leeward? Didn't he solo a Mustang at 16 or 17?

            When did Corky Fornoff solo? I know he "stole" his dad's T-6 and soloed himself and I saw him fly an airshow in a F-51 when he was 19.
