  • Not Air Racin' xzactly but...

    Been a busy year.. Having to run through images shot last year in an effort to catch up, some, previously held back for I&P pubs (gotta try to make a buck) are now totally cleared for web view.. I've got to get the GML and Reno '07 stuff run through... What a year!

    At GML, Paint Boy and myself were but a few who were noisy enough and, LUCKY enough.. not to mention, noisy and THERE when the airplanes were loaded.. (key words. don't sleep, don't eat.. just be at the briefing and at the airplane when it loads!)

    A long dig and process ahead but wanted to share just one shot of the most beautiful airplane of all time..

    More to come!

      Ah yes, a polished Mustang armed to the teeth..doesn't get any better than that.

      Great pic Wayne. Looking forward to more of your GML stuff. Keep 'em coming.

        Thanks guys..

        There were a lot of deserving photogs there and GML was a really hard fought (to get the seat) but extremely rare opportunity and I'm very grateful for getting it!

        I'm gonna try to turn over a new leaf this year and get back to putting more stuff on the site!

        I have photos and stories dating all the way back to 2000 that I've never done anything with..

              Great shot Wayne & we do appreciate you & this site.As much as I like air racing I'm sure glad some of them keep them stock. There is a lot of work to keep them looking like your photo.

                Little fuzzy on the history but.. I *think* that airplane is actually Lefty's old Mustang that once raced!

                  That is the Mustang that Lefty raced as "Thunderbird". It's now owned by Lewis Shaw and based out of Addison TX. SN# 44-73704

                            Didn't Lefty and T-bird win the gold back in the 70s when more competitive planes broke?

                            Er am I just dumb as a bag of hair?

                              I remember that plane. I thought that was the coolest p51 ever for the longest time when I was a kid.
