WW2 P-51 Mustang Valhalla in Flying Condition - Apollo Astronaut Bill Anders

I was at the Heritage Flying Museum in Skagit Washington. They have over twenty aircraft here.
They specialize in regularly flying their aircraft and appearing in local & regional airshows.
The museum is located on Skagit Regional Airport KBVS just north of Seattle.
This is NASA Apollo Astronaut Bill Anders museum - The Heritage Flight Museum.
Bill owns a group of airplanes that are regularly flown.

Very sad to hear the passing of Bill Anders June 8 2024. A great man who flew with passion for his whole life. RIP Bill.

When I was a kid I got pictures of me on the wing and in front of the plane with the pilot back in the early 2000s in Fort St. John BC Canada, so cool to see it still around!!!! ❤ thank you for sharing!

Great tour and insight! I recently had the privilege to see this beauty taxi to her spot at Sacramento Capital Air Show. P-51's are so sleek that I always underestimate their large size. Thank you!

No strangers would be allowed near or to touch ANYTHING on my aircraft. Especially know-it-all strangers.
