Red Tail Tuskegee P51C which I helped restore the first time it was restored back in MN when I lived there. It has crashed twice since then killing a friend/pilot the first time and I unknowingly watched him leave formation and lose altitude without knowing he crashed moments later. Most of the surviving Tuskegee airmen during the time of the restoration had come thru the hanger at one time or another and I was able to meet and talk to them. What an honor!
