Product Description
The famed P-51 Mustang, one of the most recognizable aircrafts of the World War II era, is at the heart of this enthralling memoir. After making extreme modifications to a surplus P-51 dubbed “Miss America”—installing a race engine, adding an oversized propeller, and clipping two feet off each wing—retired Navy pilot Howie Keefe embarked on what proved to be an extremely successful air racing career. This entertaining biography chronicles how, just as the sport began to experience an explosive period of growth, Keefe was winning trophy after trophy in air races across the country.
