I didn't find out about this until about two hours before she was due to arrive, but somehow managed to pull things together and get over to TEB for some photos of her. Spent most of Thurs. afternoon and Friday taking pictures of this beautiful aircraft. Enjoy ...
She is absolutely gorgeous and spotless. You'd never believe spending 50+ years buried under 200+ feet of ice would preserve you so good :D That and the 7 million restoration cost.
Ed McManus, the last surviving pilot from the "Lost Squadron" being interviewed for TV.
The TV interview: L to R: Steve Hinton pilot of the P-38 Glacier Girl, Ed McManus, last surviving pilot from the ill-fated Lost Squadron flight, and Ed Shipley who will fly Miss Velma, a P-51 Mustang, on the flight.
For those of you who are Mustang nuts here's one for you ...
These were all taken on Thursday. I'll try and post a few more tomorrow that were taken on Friday when Glacier Girl was out of the hangar.
Enjoy.
