Flight Departure From WWII...

The occasion... The P-51 Fly in at the Palm Springs Air Museum and a day excursion for myself. From the Air Museum website:

"Among one of the most famous fighters of World War II, the P-51 Mustang has its roots in both Britain and the USA. Originally overlooked by the USAAF, the P-51 did not see action with American forces until March 1943. Once its full potential had been developed, the USA realized that this aircraft had been ignored for far too long a time. With the forging of the American airframe with the British Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, it would be unmatched by any other piston aircraft of World War II."

These photographs were taken with medium format film, Fuji Pro 160c, with a Mamiya 645 AFDII camera and a Mamiya 105-210 f/4.5 lens. In no special order, here they are. And remember, keep coming back if you "Wanna See More..."
