My B-25D flight with a P-51B Mustang
#1

Amazing flight, words cannot express it. It was my first ever flight in an airplane, any airplane. 78thFG_Snitchy (my Dad) and I flew in the oldest flying B-25 in the world and got to photograph/film one of the few surviving P-51B/C's in existence. We flew over the San Juan Islands and Mount Pilchuck in Washington, it was beautiful weather with not a cloud in sight.

The museum that hosted this was the Historic Flight Foundation, their B-25D Mitchell "Grumpy" flew as the photo ship with the museum's P-51B "Impatient Virgin?" as the target aircraft.
