Are you asking about the guy that is always buzzing Flat Iron in the P-51 or at least that's what I think it is?

You can check out the Federal Aviationa Administration registration records at
http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/acftinqSQL.asp?striptxt=P51&mfrtxt=&modeltxt=P-51&cmndfind.x=0&cmndfind.y=0

Several P-51s registered in Maricopa County. Only one P-38. If you can get the N number you will know the exact owner.

For an amateur owner of a P-51 the FAA registrations for Maricopa County should help. But the N number is the best way to know the owner. Our corporate jets are hangered at Sky Harbor but registered out of Delaware.

I have seen one with wings at TIA before and it was very impressive. Now there is a bicycle called the Lightning P-38 and I own one of them. It is flat out fast but does not come with the bike helper pictured.

I'm very familiar with the P-51. It was the question that was thin.

Know both planes and had a friend who flew the P-38 in WW II, but I thought you are refering to the P-38 GI can opener. Have also observed the P-51 in the Superstition Wilderness Area.

There's also a P-51 can opener, larger than the P-38.
