Joseph, WOW, is right, thanks for the great feed back on your flight in the Mustang with Stallion 51. It is great to know that we fulfilled your expectations from "call-up to shut down".

What a great opportunity to enjoy an iconic symbol of American history. The pilot, John "Homer" Black was very professional and a GREAT pilot. The one hour flight can only be described as awesome.

Ever since I was a child I built models of and dreamt about flying the P-51 Mustang. For my 70th birthday I actually did so. Considering i had absolutely no flying experience, they and my pilot John "Homer" Black were super. I actually flew the plane for most of the tiime including barrel rolls, loops and immelmans. I would recommend... More

Super! "Flew with John "Homer" Black and he was awesome! I have always wanted to do this and it was spectacular. The Planes are in immaculate shape and you could eat off the floor of the hangar it was that clean. I was a little bit nervous at first when I was told I was going to actually fly the... More

"Proud American"; We pride ourselves in making sure everyone has a great flight experience in the P-51 Mustang, however, flying in formation with another Mustang is the frosting on an already great cake! We are glad that your flight in the Mustang was all you hoped it would be and then some. Even though we fly the Mustangs every day... More

Very professionally run organization. Everything from the pre-flight briefing, the flight, and the debriefing were top knotch. Enjoyed flying with John"Homer" Black very much. Very patient with this old helicopter pilot. I highly recommend anyone interested in aviation to give Stallion 51 a try, you will not be disappointed. More

What better way for someone who has always had a passion for WW2 aviation to celebrate a “big” birthday than flying in P51 “Crazy Horse 2”. My wife and I were made to feel very welcome by Julia on our arrival and following an informative pre-flight briefing I was taken down to the hangar where two pristine P51s were sitting.... More

To our new UK Spitfire friend; Thank you for capturing in words that a flight with Stallion 51 in one of our Mustangs is more than a flight of fancy (or fantasy) but a flight into history. Stallion 51 enjoys sharing the P-51 Mustang with our UK friends. We share an aviation history and a bond through the great planes... More

Even more special is flying a P-51 in formation with your brother! Good thing you have the video of your flight for no one would believe you! We look forward... More

I imagine like many others reviewing their flights at Stallion 51, probably had trouble putting into words all the sensations and feelings that accompany an experience like this.

It is wonderful that you were able to share the experience with your family and children. The Mustang, T-6 and L-39 are great "touch stones" to make history interesting to the next... More

I've wanted to go up in a P-51 since I was a kid. Just going for a ride would have been amazing. Taking the stick and actually getting to fly a legend through numerous maneuvers was an experience I will never forget! I can't say enough about the pilots.
