[MilCom] Interesting visitors to Nashville today

[Joe Cobb]

Very few times does a warbird stop at Nashville (KBNA) for a fuel and go much less an overnight.  They usually stick with smaller grass roots airports.  These two stopped in and we got them in a hangar for an overnight. 

Callsign was simply MUSTANG "flight" and landed Nashville around 1745L from the east: 118.4>124.75>118.6 headed to Texas.

#1: P-51D, N63476 (USAAF serial: 44-63476) in Canadian colors and their designator as RAF Mk-4 (RAF serial: 9274) flown by Ed Shipley.

#2: P-51C, NL487FS (USAAF serial: 43-25147) in US colors, unsure of pilots name on this one.

Kind of a neat thing to see during an otherwise tedius dull day with all the usual bizjets and so forth.
