    The is a real Mustang of a jet to fly. Was very excited to get it, and was well done. I met Gen. Benjamin O, at Andrews AFB, while with the 113th TFW, DCANG. We had F-4D's and was transitioning to the F-16's. I didn't know who he was at the time (1982), and he told stories of his days with the red tail Mustangs in WWII, and the F-86, during Korea. he would have been proud of tis one.
