Got quite a pleasant surprise yesterday. I was in my driveway when I heard a plane or several planes actually. Now I live in a heavy agriculture area and am used to crop dusters flying close. They all have turbo prop engines now and make a whistling kind of sound. This other sound was definitely some kind of piston engine. To my immense surprise and delight, there were four WW2 warbirds flying in close formation almost right over my house! Appeared to be a F4U Corsair, 2 P51 Mustangs and a P47 Jug flying in a tight diamond formation. What a glorious sight and sound!

There is a hot air balloon meet going on in Natchez on the other side of the river and they were, no doubt, here for that. The planes made orbits of the town all morning.

Later, I got a bonus when 3 P51's flew over my shop. Felt like I was getting a private air show! Hearing 36 cylinders flying in formation was a great sound.

Here's a crappy picture



And a few balloons





Wish ya'll could have been here to hear and see it.
