J. Jackson 1,129 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) I remember as a kid there was an air show at our small state airport and a P51 was one of the show planes. He did a probably 300 mph low level pass maybe 20 ft over the runway and then came back inverted over it. Made me a fan forever of the plane. Edited March 11 by J.
