| Description |
“Frenesi” was an F-6K and was sold surplus immediately following WWII, registered as NX66111, the aircraft was entered into the 1946 Cleveland Air Races as racer No.80 “Full House”, but its engine failed and was forced to crash-land. By 2009, the project was sold to Dan Friedkin, now registered as N357FG. The aircraft has now emerged in early 2017, resplendent and flying again in the markings of “Frenesi”. P-51D-5-NA #44-13318 “Frenesi” was flown by Lt. Col. Thomas L. Hayes, Jr. Hayes got his pilot’s wings in February 1941 and flew P-40s with the 17th Pursuit Squadron.
