P-51D overhead EHGR 20-2

Post by hanzl »

Hi,

yesterday at around 1600h an unid P-51D(silver o/a,red rudder,PH-PSI?) was performing aerobatics overhead Gilze.
Though not actually seen 'm doing this ,I had the impression he was 'beating up'the field too.
Anyone on this?
regards
Hanzl

Hi,
I seen him performing this aerobatics too. Unfortunately he was too high to read off the serial but it looked exactly like the one Joost mentioned. It was definately not the 'Damn Yankee' / PH-PSI.
It did two aerobatic runs of about 5-10minutes each.

Ook ik zag het zijn stunten vertonen..., op de foto kon ik geen kleuren herkennen helaas wegens tegenlicht.
Eerst dat ik aan een KLu Historical Flight Harvard!

Beetje voorzichtig met het woord 'stunten' hè :wink:

Hi,
it was certainly NOT PH-PSI:checkin'out some photgraphs I thinks it is indeed TF-51D PH-VDF(472922/L2-W)
