With all this bickering, maybe WIX should have a Safety Stand down??

Isn't it more of a Gossip Standdown?
Have any of you noticed that the P-51 pilots who play on WIX are strangely absent? Hmmmm...perhaps there's a reason for this. Trust me...the guys who do are the guys who know what happened, and it's going to be pretty darn close to what the final results of the NTSB report are going to say.
It's being discussed...but it's being discussed in private, which for a while at least, is probably where it should be.

So, what color silver was it? Can we at least discuss that without drawing a disapproving glare from the peanut gallery? Or might the media pick up on that too?

Nothing. There is no 90 degree roll. It's the camera panning from upper left to horizontal right about that many degrees.

but you're right it's nothing. Optical illusion when the wings blend (almost) into the background.
