That landing incident took place in 2006 at Lodi, California. It was repaired and then a few years later it was sold to Eddie Andreini and restored by Airmotive Specialties into immaculate condition. Here's the history of the airframe: http://mustangsmustangs.com/p-51/surviv ... l/44-73079

Originally a longer version of the video was posted on youtube but was removed after awhile. The vid was narrated in a running commentary, IIRC, by the pilots wife. A redhead with a nasal pitch and a cackle of a laugh who sounded half in the bag, was very derogatory toward the gent. Hence my comment in Mike Furlines link to the old discussion...

Any idea where to find the video complete with the audio? It was priceless.

Alas, no Taigh. I'm hoping someone grabbed it and plays it back here.
