Glad everyone is OK, but this can't be good news for the MNWing. Anybody have more details?

Hopefully nothing too major either way thank God she's on the ground safely. Alan and crew stayed at the hotel my wife works at a couple weeks ago. They gave me a deluxe cockpit tour after the show. Great people and definitely my best warbird experience to date.

Yup, aircraft is in the air on the way back to base right now. It was a prop governor failure, not an engine failure.

I really appreciate hearing that! I will pass it on to the crew.

Thanks,

Glad to see that everything went ok. Maybe they got to sell some T-shirts at the unscheduled stop.

Glad to hear that, speaking of which, how's your 'prop governer' doing Jeff? Hope you're well along towards completely mended.
