If you're in the area you should visit the "Crazy Horse" hangar (it's just gone, the correct name, as I typed, and I can't get it back. Ohhhhh senility...) at Kissimmee airport.

They have a two seat Mustang you can take up for an hour, (for an arm and a leg,) or for half an hour (just for the arm. ) Alternatively, you can do what I did and ask nicely and they'll show you around the hangar - four Mustangs and a Kittyhawk/Warhawk were in when I was there. Pristine condition. Beautiful. And the chief engineer showing me around and chatting to me while I gawked. Very friendly people and superb aircraft. Worth wandering over while your missus is airborne.

Been there, seen that and bought the T-shirt. (And a very nice one it is, too) :-)
