Just a simple site with pictures of Pandas after the earthquake. They have that 'awww' factor.

Very beautiful, wish I could see them in person. Especially the hand with flowing water, and the hand pouring the tea, and the dolphins, and that one wall, and all of it.

Hey, I was at the Gathering of Mustangs and Legends mentioned in the video. I love Mustangs. They had some flights that mixed Mustangs with a modern fighter - the Mustangs must have been peddling as fast as they could while the fighter was standing on the brakes in order to keep formation, but it was a great photo op. Thanks for that link. I'm going to send it on to those who attended the show with me.

@ morethan....are you my sister? I swear she said the same things about both.

Sweetwater...the stock Mustang was capable of 351 mph. Not too hard for a modern jet fighter to keep up.

Modified versions (read: the Type 61 Merlin) can hit 408 mph at sea level. With modern tolerances and machining, even an older Type 40 Merlin or a basic Dart engine can likely hit 375.

The Mustang was a damn good fighter, but I'd match it to the F8F Bearcat any day. It was faster, more maneuverable, had the (arguable) advantage of a radial engine versus the water-cooled Merlin.

I can talk planes all day but it might be better to do it in PM or another thread to prevent topic drift.

Or you could start a thread so the rest of us can learn something?
