Actually, the Mustang flies.  These wings are take offs.  I don't think he's going to use them.  On the same airport, there is a Mustang Restoration place.  That's all they do is restore Mustangs...

That's allright, we have what used to eb an old firestation down the road abut a mile from here, and the place is fenced in, and leaning up against the one wall is a complete set of wings for an avenger....:-(

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the rest of the plane is stored inside there as well...

I keep wanting to buy it and restore it, but I'm sure they know how much it is worth and wouldn't sell it to me cheaply..
