Ah..Cooda P-51s
Tin knows a gentleman got one them going from a nuclear bomb blast site in SA
Fixed it up a bit and flew it to Coober Pedy where he was met by the DCA in them days.
Then was escorted (wheels down) by DCA Aerocommander to Parafield.
There is a nice vid clip of it taking off in Coober Pedy generating the biggest bloody dust storm you could imagine.
