Interesting pics. It’s on old slides like these that we may see some (sadly) long lost airshow visitors. Nice to see those.

That’s the scheme on Bob Guildford’s Mustang Club aircraft. Crashed in 1980 in California killing aviatrix Pancho Barnes son Bill.

Yup – but it was rebuilt using Indonesian Mustang components and eventually returned to Europe as “Temptation”, only to fatally crash again in the Swiss Mountains 1998.

Interesting pics Colin,thanks for sharing.:)
The Mustang was NL5747 which paid a visit to the UK in the late 70’s,there’s an often published picture of her flying alongside Spitfire MH434 when she bore Sir Adrian Swire’s personal AC-S code letters.
The Mustang returned to the States and tragically was destroyed in a fatal crash in 1980.:(
