Grim Reaper
P-51 Mustang. Lucky fly-by today down near Hollister, Ca.
Some history I just looked up on this classic prop-driven fighter from WW2:
"Lowell K. Brueland, P-51 Mustang WWII Ace of the 354th FG.
He piloted the 'Grim Reaper' and 'Wee Speck', both P-51Ds.
Sal Rubino painted his P-51 in Brueland's honor in 2000.
Brueland was a fierce combat pilot but a very humble man.
He led a full life and passed on the morning of July 2 2012, at the age of 93."
