P-51 Mustang Taxiing at Lloyd TN Air Museum Airshow, June 2014
A restored P-51 Mustang taxis for takeoff at a 2014 airshow in eastern Tennessee, its polished aluminum skin and invasion stripes recalling the fighter's celebrated role escorting bombers over Europe during World War II. Alongside Vietnam-era A-1 Skyraiders also present that day, this aircraft represents a different generation of American air power preserved for public appreciation. Project: 219309
