Shoot thanks for posting

Saw her fly an awesome demo at Fox Field in 2014, hope she's back soon!

Down to 5 airworthy C's I think...?

This sucks, but considering what they rebuilt her from after Don Hinz's accident, this 'tis just a little flesh wound/MontyPython

If you have the chance, check out the documentary "Red Tail Reborn". It's an excellent film about the history of this aircraft

Following the whole warbird "movement" since the very early seventies, that statement jogs me, just to be able to say it. I remember when Regina's B model was the ONLY high-back Mustang flying.
Shows how far it has all come!

Damage doesn't look to bad.

The prop tore off hard, everything forward of the wing is bent.
Going to be a major rebuild.
