A Gathering of Mustangs and Legends
The largest assemblage of the most famous
fighter of World War II took place April 7-10, 1999, at "A Gathering of Mustangs and Legends," Kissimmee, Florida, airport. Approximately 65 Mustangs attended this gathering that was a real challenge for the Stallion 51 organization. For the non-flying P-51 fan with a camera, this was a once-in-a-lifetime chance to photograph, in one location, Mustangs from all over the United
States.
Joe Handelman, a retired dentist and long-time aviation photographer and member of AAHS, generously loaned AAHS his photos from the Gathering.
