Surreal. Look how small the P51 Mustang is next to the modern day A10 Warthog, F15 Eagle and F22 Raptor.

Figther planes have come a long, long way.

Interesting fact: In WWII, the best climb rate of any prop fighter was about 4,000 per minute sustained. Today, there are planes that climb at over 50,000 feet per minute.

Yeah, it is so small. Have to wonder what that P51 thinks when flying next to those planes.

Some more pictures.

The pics with all 4 planes in them are awesome. Great seeing where we've come from and are now.
