Wings of Freedom Tour 2016 Part One: P-51

[PFMcFarland]

The Collins Foundation sends their planes around the country giving walk-through tours, and rides to offset the costs. I broke up the photos taken over three days into seven groups, consisting of the P-51 Mustang, B-17 Flying Fortress, B-24 Liberator, B-25 Mitchell, a general overlook of the air show, a special presentation of a street naming, and miscellaneous operations going on at the Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport (ROA) in Roanoke, VA during the show.

A sample of the first 23 photos: P-51 Mustang

These are excellent, PF. My father was a P-51 instructor with the 2nd Air Force so I have a fondness for it.

That's badass. Truly badass.
