More great clouds amidst the beautiful-blues! I think my dad and I put together a really elaborate wood model of a P-51 when I was a kid. A WWII workhorse in the sky!
@skipt07 I can't speak of the motives for those pilots, but this Foundation, to me, is pretty amazing. http://www.collingsfoundation.org/aircrafts/
From what I read on site, this doctor bought these aircraft that had been retired, sitting abandoned in the desert. His goal was to restore them to show condition, not flying condition. However, feedback from others convinced him to get them to fly. The one bomber (B24), took 97,000 hours to restore! It was warmed my heart to see the generations talking.
