Helping us feel those #SpookySeason vibes – Strega and Voodoo. 👻🧟 Did you know that “strega” is Italian for witch? The only thing scary about these two P-51 air racers is how frighteningly fast they are, as demonstrated here at the @PlanesofFame Air Show in Chino, California, in 2018. #Halloween #aviation #avgeek #airracing #P51 #Mustang

It's #FormationFriday, and we're taking a trip back to 1991 with two Cessna Skymasters! Both aircraft are depicted in U.S. Air Force markings, but the type's military service extended beyond the Air Force, serving with the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army as well. #Aviation #Avgeeks #AviationHistory #Warbirds
