Reno Air Race Preparation -- A Merlin Engine Inspection

[jon350]

First, thank you for capturing the clearest in-cockpit footage of a P-51 that I've ever seen! Second, I have a 1965 mustang fastback (that I like to think has the same roofline as the P-51) and a Honda S2000. But it's crazy to see them adjusting the valve on a warbird like I've done a dozen times to both of my rides.

Thank you for documenting this!

I flew with Stu in the Betty Jane, a P-51 owned by the Collings Foundation with a full set of dual controls. The P 51 handles like a dream. What an experience. What a great pilot and Instructor. Flew out of Paso Robles. Thanks again Stu.

I miss seeing the NRAR's! Sucks that I live in Colorado now and can't see them. My dad used to work out there and would fuel the planes. Wonder if you know him.

Great video! Hope the owner flies her to Watsonville tomorrow for the fly-in.
