That is pretty wild. The mustang would out turn a Mig.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

That was really great to hear that.
Thanks for posting the link.

George Preddy was......Just the greatest fighter pilot who ever squinted through a gunsight.
He was a complete fighter pilot.......Colonel John C. Meyer Deputy Commander of the 352nd.

Good Stuff;

Corgi's Korean War Mustang is an 18th Fighter Bomber Wing one, as is Dragons, though neither is Miss Dee, Yingling's plane. This one goes in the books with Hoagy Charmichael's Mig Kill in a Sea Fury and Phil DeLong's in a -4B Corsair. Now if only somebody aside from Matchbox would do a Mig 15.
