After having moved out of my parents' house in Guatemala City, I went back after so many years. And right there, inside of what used to be my bedroom, there is this pristine, North American P-51D-25-NA (yes, down to the full model number) MUSTANG, pearl gray, fuselage. The wings are set on the side, on a craddle, and the engine and instruments are there, as well as propeller and the jig, the very important jig, to keep the Mustang straight and true to its original design. I touched it, and felt the cold metal against my hands. I had, quickly! to make plans to move this airplane to the USA, where I could finally achieve my life long frustrated dream of ever owning and oh,myGOD! Flying a P-51.

My dreams are very real, and I feel pain and I can smell and taste, so upon waking up and realizing that it was a dream, I was, to say the least, very sad and disappointed . . .
