Here is a video of my flight on Crazy Horse (54.6 mb)

I was scheduled to fly at 1 p.m. and I did show up about a half hour early to take a look around.  They had three P-51's in a hanger along with a Spitfire MK XIV and a P-40.

I was introduced to Eric Huppert who would be my instructor for this one hour flight.  We went through a pre-flight briefing which he went over what to expect during the flight and safety instructions.  He said he wanted me to do the majority of the flying.

Here are a few photos:

You do not need any pilot experience to fly the dual controlled TF-51.  I do have about 130 hours - almost all in Cessna and nothing larger than a C-172.  This was a real treat and you are treated very well while you are there. 

At the end of your flight you are given a certificate, a photo and a video tape of your flight which has all the communications that occurred during the flight.  There are 3 cameras on the plane so you get some various shots during your experience.
