A lovely view of the clouds/mountains on the way to Gatlinburg in the P-51 Mustang.

It is the crack of dawn at Gatlinburg Airport (Yes, I AM awake) and they are starting to pull out the airplanes--the P-47 was first...

The Mail Call guys setting up a "Lipstick Cam" so they can see the Gunny during his flight.

Pulling out "Sweetie Face", the other Mustang there.

"Sweetie Face" at Dawn...

The P-47's lined up

The "Avenger", wings folded.

The Gunny talks with Martin in the hangar.

Chuck & Nathan hang out in the hanger

The 'Wicked Wabbit' throws off some wicked oil!

Gunny & Martin.  :)

Good morning to the sun-and Nathan's Mustang

The morning "briefing" before the flights with the Gunny and all the pilots/crew/videographers/photographers

The briefing...

The pilots...

Holy cow, the "Wicked Wabbit" ate its mechanic!  :O

Sorry for finding this so amusing, but it just looked...wrong.

Okay, time to pull him out...

Almost out...

All but the head.  lol

Chuck & Judy.  :)

Mr. Davis and his plane.

The TBM fires up, with Gunny and some crew on the right.

Watching the TBM get ready to roll

The TBM and the P-47's head out for their flight

Gunny comes over to speak with Nathan for a bit about the P-51

Just going over some of the plane's characteristics

This is Frank Luckman, an actual P-47 pilot from WWII; the Gunny, and Nathan.

Nathan & Gunny having a good time. :)

Frank, Gunny & Nate

Nathan & Gunny

Some of the crew watching down the runway as the "birds" get ready to take flight.
