Video of the Week: Big Beautiful Doll at Compton Abbas

A favorite plane of ours (and pretty much everyone else) is the P-51 Mustang Big Beautiful Doll, and this week she touches down for a gorgeous landing on a small grass field runway at Compton Abbas in Dorset, U.K. AVweb reader Charles Davis had just hangared his Cub when he heard a Mustang was coming in for a landing and shot this clip of Rob Davies landing the Doll on the fly. “I like it so much I put in on YouTube,” Charles writes; “I hope you like it, too.” No worries there, Charles. We enjoyed it quite a bit, and now the rest of AVweb can start the week with it, too.
