Thanks a lot, Chuck.
The owner of the Mustangs is mad keen on their authenticity (like most owners
in this field). He is Maurice Hammond, a smashing chap with a broad Norfolk
accent. I met him about 7 years ago when he visited Wyton for his display
authorisation from one of our pilots, an ex-CAA official (and, coincidentally,
the display director of this show).
Some of Maurice's story is here:
