been reading the posts of the Mustang Gathering. That would be so great to see the big flyover. That was such as disapointment in Fla, that they would only let 5 go at a time. Anyhow, been thinking about George Enhornings......."passion wagon" any wixers have pics of it.............been a long time since I have seen any. I remember seeing it at the Hamilton show back in the 80's. Also, anyone know the history of it and where the wreckage ended up??? If I remember right, it actually had some ww2 history??

The remains of Passion Wagon became the basis for Bill Speers "DeJa Vu" which was lost in a crash at Reno in 1994.

I sold a P-51 fuel gauge to the nephew of George Ernhorning. He said he was restoring her to fly again. Not seen anything in the press about it though.

Cheers,
Richard
