Warbird Heritage Foundation Acquires P-51 Mustang "Moonbeam McSwine" To Honor Vlado Lenoch

Rumors have been swirling for a while that someone was working to buy Moonbeam and bring her home to the US to be flown as a tribute to Vlado. WHF announced today that it is not only true, it is a done deal! The aircraft is being reassembled in Wisconsin.

Part of the rumor is that they bought and then traded an F-86 Sabre to get Moonbeam, but no word on that at all.
The loss of Vlado is still shocking, and I have many fond memories with both him and Moonbeam. I don't think I'll be the only one to feel a little emotional when I see it again.
