Photos of roadside warbirds and museum collections are most welcome. Photos of aircraft as they are currently displayed are great, but photos of airframes in previous markings, with past owners or during a restoration are fantastic as well. You can help document the history of airframes with photos!

Photo Date: Circa 11 September 1995
Credit: Bradley Haskin
Date Uploaded: 22 September 2019
Airframe: North American-Whittington P-51XR Mustang, c/n 44-88, c/r N6WJ
Notes: Reno 95. H-model tail unit installed. Unconfirmed whether the H-tail was repaired from the wrecked N5483V or if it was a new-build unit. (The current remains of N5483V as it sits in storage is tail-less.so it is possible that this was the unit from the Merlin bird). (Timothy Weinschenker photo)

Photo Date: In September 1988
Credit: Bradley Haskin
Date Uploaded: 22 September 2019
Airframe: North American-Whittington P-51XR Mustang, c/n 44-88, c/r N6WJ
Notes: September 1988. The new airframe, because it was a parts aircraft, was registered as 44-88, and assumed the identity of N5483V (because the data plate from the Merlin bird was on the tail section).

Date Uploaded: 22 September 2019
Airframe: North American-Whittington P-51XR Mustang, c/n 44-88, c/r N6WJ
Notes: Spring 1988. The Griffon Precious Metal was a parts-build racer. It started around a cockpit center-section that had been used as a prop by MGM studios, and was purchased via the Tallmantz-collection. (I have not seen any documented provinance to show the serial number for the center section).

(Lowell Thompson photograph) In late 1989, Whittington got the aircraft and flew it back to Fort Lauderdale. It was in THIS condition that it was heavily damaged when it was ditched in the Gulf of Mexico in January 1990. Airframe was recovered and put into storage. Currently awaiting restoration.
