RE: i want to fly
Couple of instructors at our club that have flow the PTS P-51 have said that it is a great flier. I have a feeling that Hanger 9 hit the nail squarely on the head with this plane. Everybody wants a "cool" plane, and nobody really likes the look of a trainer. This plane combines good looks with good flying qualities. I think they'll sell a bunch of these. There's already 2 at our club.
