Gallery Update: Airport Appreciation Day

The Legacy Flight Museum of Rexburg, Idaho hosted a fly-in/open house event called Airport Appreciation Day at the Rexburg-Madison County Airport. The public was granted exclusive access to the ramp where the museum's flying collection of aircraft were on static display. Some planes like the SNJ-3 Texan, and P-51D Mustang even took to the skies. And of course, I've taken the usual opportunity to snap quite a few pictures, both from the event and regular planespotting at the airport:

In addition to the photos I've taken, I also filmed some action including two P-51D Mustangs, an SNJ-3 Texan, two Cessna Bird Dogs, and a Yakovlev Yak-55M. I like making videos now because they don't have to be lengthy; some videos are less than 30 seconds long! Here's the link to my video gallery:

Grumman S2F-1 Tracker
 This aircraft is the latest addition to the Legacy Flight Museum.

North American P-51D Mustang named the "Mormon Mustang."
It's so great to see this bird restored and flying after it crashed back in December 2006!

Bob Hoover's former P-51D Mustang nicknamed "Ole Yeller" flying formation with the Mormon Mustang. Quite a sight to see two P-51s flying together!
