Hehe, the #9 kills me - is his crew chief that large? Looks like something out of a cartoon...

The quality of the shots has much improved Dave.

Great work Dave, you haven't lost your touch.

Glad to see you saw Beasley and Shipley. They really do have that Mustang stuff down right.

Thanks everyone, it's nice to get back into the swing of things!

That CC was very tall, the other CC that's behind the taller was a tad shorter than me but DOG is also a height restricted pilot

Better angle here.

Great shots! Especially the crew chief one biggrin And the Horsemen Mustangs..that's always a treat to see, and Ed Shipley has got to be the luckiest man in the world with all the planes he gets to fly! smile
