Vintage Aircraft
I shot this image of the Mustang IV (P-51) through a chain link fence while it taxied on the tarmac.
I was invited onto the tarmac to get a close up view of this vintage aircraft.
The first prototype pf the P-51 was originally designed for an RAF requirement.
The mustang was capable of escorting daylight bomber formations all the way to Berlin and back providing much needed protection from German interceptors.
Technology changes rapidly but this old plane still flies the open skies.
