Open Hangar Day recap from American Aero Services, January 2016
Did not have a lot of time for an extended visit at American Aero during their Open Hangar day in January so only a few pictures this day. The turn out was amazing with over 1000 people reportedly visiting during the day. Donations to the local Humane Society were stacked pretty high.
It was good to see the P-40 back together again and in the sunlight. I have some walk around video that I need to compile and post.
P-51 44-74204 formerly known as “Passion Wagon”
Update: Looks like Tom Reilly owns this aircraft and has it in storage in Georgia. Thanks to Jim Harley for the info.
The P-51 formerly known as “Passion Wagon” (44-74204) was being stored and worked on at the Valiant Air Command Museum. I last saw it in the summer of 2014 at the museum. Anyone know where it is now?

Restoration photo of P-51 Sizzlin’ Liz
Michael Marco recently posted this photo of the restoration of P-51 Sizzlin’ Liz which is being worked on in Jacksonville.
“Since Sizzlin’ Liz’s Grand National Champion title in 1996, David has flown countless air shows and amassed over 1350 hours, therefore a second restoration/engine overhaul was due. Glenn Wegman of Fighter Enterprises in Indiantown FL will return the Mustang to it’s war time glory complete with a bare aluminum fuselage and satin field colors as it was when based in the Debden England in 1944. The project should be completed in Fall of 2015.”
