Nice pics. I'm sure it is a sad thing to watch a beauty like that fly away. With your title, I was afraid it was going to be a smoking hole or a scrapyard shot! :shock:

I thought it was about a crashed mustang myself. :shock: I guess I am getting way to jumpy anymore.

Glad she is coming to NY. I will be sure to take many pics of her if she comes to Geneseo. Good to have more warbirds coming to the east.

I know who but I never asked precisely where.
I believe Tim is building him a T-6/SNJ also.

I have met them.
It is a father/son deal with a whole flying family involved.
Congrats to them.

Yes Rich,
I understand Murphy Sr and 2 sons went in together on the a/c 8)
I'm hoping when it's done they'll have Jeff fly it uo to NY for them.

I bet it's sad to see her go. Think she'll end up with a repaint?

Very sad. I'm sure it was hard for Jim to watch her fly away.
Has for paint I don't know, The scheme is a bit inarruate but in really nice shape. If it was me I'd put the $$ in flying it!!
