Brought me to tears! I've flown the P-51 before, but never had the good fortune to see it in this kind of light. You should submit this to AOPA or Flying magazine. I may have to put this on my desktop if you don't mind!! Thanks very much for sharing!

And once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, For there you have been and there you long to return....
