Revisiting an old scan of a slide... This was taken at the now long gone Frederick Airshow. I am guessing it would be in the late 90s. The #Corsair in the background was the aircraft flown by Joe Tobul which he crashed and died in November 2002. His son Jim Tobul later rebuilt the aircraft and currently flies it at airshows. The #P51D Mustang was donated to the #RAF Museum in 2003 where it is currently on display. #joetobul #jimtobul #airshow #warbirds #aviation #vintageaircraft
