There was some people wondering about the yellow nose and tail on the POF P-51 at Sacramento. They were part of a Brietling shoot at the end of August/early September and they polished and painted the P-51 as Brietling requested. Here's the results!
Very cool!

It was quite fun to have Steve here for a few days during the shoot though.

Would be fun riding across a salt lake with no front guard and an open faced helmet.
Still it looks cool and she had her sunnies on - very Hardly.

Sharp looking 'Stang but I bet setting down on such an expansive and flat, featureless surface would have been a challenge.

BTW - while they were here the POF Corsair was also here - pretty sure that was not the camera plane - hey - with those two warbirds on the ramp it is easy to ignore everything else :D

As a Breitling owner (I depend on Casio to know what time it is), if you need to know the time, skip Breitling, if you want a nice chunk of jewelry or something is too small and you want to make up for it and have nothing else to spend your money on, then there is Breitling... Mine keeps sh!!!!!y time even after trips to the factory for service.
