Registry overhaul - What's next?

[Scott Rose]

Scott, one possible quickie for you. I noticed in the Fiat G.59 registry the lack of of Jerry Yagen's MM53778, c#185 which reportedly is being converted to G.55, tho there is an oddity in registrations. The ex-Zuccoli G.59 formerly VH-LIX, now D-FIAT, MM3772, c#179 came out of Meier's restoration with NC185 painted on it rather than NC179. Might stand-by on some clarification from those folks? Like you got nuthin' else to do... Regardless of all that, MM53778 is not there and VH-LIX is now D-FIAT.
Thanks for all you do Scott!

I'll put it on the to do list

No discrepancies about these two Mustangs. The only similarity is that they both wear the name "Sizzlin Liz". You have added an entry in the registry for the late Ted Contri's N51HR, but have added the photos of Dave Marco's N351DM. Curtis entries at Mustangsmustangs are as good as gold for this pair of 51s.

Also, P-51 45-11518 was involved in a fatal crash on 10/3/16. The owner Maurice Hammond sustained major injuries but survived. I do not know the status of the aircraft at this time.
