The Horsemen site shows them due to appear at both the May and July Duxford shows this year
http://www.horsemenflight.com/
Wonder what aircraft, if any, they will bring over? Two ship or three ship?

Indeed – I reckon there will be a lot of disappointments on the USAF front this season…:(

I can see there being another Heritage Flight with that theme and having Hinton/Friedkin over ๐
Think that’s highly unlikely now along with anything from the USAF bases ๐

It’s about time Leg ends got every airworthy P-51’s in Europe together & dropped many of the Spits :diablo:
Better still – both!!:diablo: But I will be quite happy with 2 or 3 Horesemen P-51 plus the usual Legends suspects……;)

Horsemen last November
I went to the Aviation Nation show at Nellis last November and the Horsemen put on a beautiful display in 3 Korean conflict marked F86 Sabres – but I don’t think they would bring them over to Duxford, P51s are more likely.

I think they pulled the plug on online merchandise sales at the same time that they killed off the whole Airshowbuzz.com thing overnight.

On a slightly different note, ive been trying to find some Horsemen merchandise online i’d love a cap with there log on it. Can’t seem to find anything online = (

Now with the Horesman confirmed surely all the other owners of P51โs in Europe will be gathering around them
Why would they gather around the Horsemen.
Sounds a very ambitious plan, can’t see it happening.

As well as the Spits and maybe 7 Hurricanes, a healthy contingents from Old Warden, LaFert Alis, Meir Motors, Red Bull plus the other German group that i can’t spell, ๐ฎ (Bremegarten) RNHF, BBMF and the other usual participants :dev2: bit greedy me ๐

Now with the Horesman confirmed surely all the other owners of P51โs in Europe will be gathering around them with the theme of US 8th AAF arriving in the UK here is a mouth watering potential display
P51โs — Its a bout time, Marinell, Jumpin Jacques, Miss Helen, Ferocious Frankie, Dream Girl, Nooky Booky, Miss Velma, Janie, Lucky Lady VII, Scat, Danm Yankee, Trusty Rusty, Excalibur, Old Crow (or whatever she is called now) 44-72811 (from Germany) and if they bring some mounts with them too ๐
And the static Big Beautiful Doll from Lambeth could be wheeled out.

others — A-26 “Sugarland Express, Red Bull P38, B 25, Corsair, the Dutch B25, Sally B, Meir Motors Corsair, the TFC Corsair, Bearcat, Wildcat, Hellcat, 3 x P40โs, P47 and then add a few Texenโs ๐
Given the anniversary i wonder if Lakenheath could be persuaded to participate aren’t they the inheritors of the Bloody 100th BG Heavy
So as i said its only a pipe dream but if only wooooooooooooo what a show ๐

hope they bring warm clear sky as well!

Fantastic news can’t wait, hoping for they bring some rides over with them.
By: ZRX61 - 18th February 2013 at 19:26
So is Jim Beasley? Not in the team anymore then?
He said it was becoming more of a business & less about the fun of flying, so he stepped down. His mechanic (Rich) has a thread on WIX that he keeps up to date with all things Beasley ๐
By: alohha1234 - 18th February 2013 at 17:29
Now that’s good news P51’s or Bearcats ??!!! guess if there at both shows it would make sense to ship over 3 rides !!! Nothing on TFC web site yet last update i can see was 27th January with the Beautiful Manhattan Dolls ๐ ๐ and that was welcome news to.
Are we going to see a drip feed to us all about participants at Legends wooooo cant wait ๐
