Description
...This P-51B Mustang was recovered from a beet field in Little Walden, England [I know, UK:)] in 2002 where it had slept for 57 years following a crash in June 1945.
...It now flies regularly out of Paine Field, Everett, Washington about 3 miles from our house.
...My three pictures were all taken at a mid-July Fly-In in Arlington, Washington. This was before I began to figure out the mysteries of prop blur. LOL
Here's the exciting backstory of how it got into the beet field and back out.

A really good sequence - the 3rd image could actually do with some more prop-blur, I agree with you on that one. But what a pity 7 German planes were shot down by this Mustang...but that's war for you ! a classic capture, BB
