Thanks again guys.
So, I'm looking for the picture I mentioned earlier and what do I find?
I've now got a picture of my Uncle standing next to the prop of what appears to be a P-51 Mustang. Other then a few exceptions, I thought most pilots stayed where they were?

Any ideas. I'll try to scan the photo and post it in a day or two.
The Mustang has a checkerboard cowl. ???
