P-51 raffle winner named

By Meg Godlewski · April 8, 2014 ·

And the winner is…Jim Penn.

At SUN ’n FUN, Penn’s raffle ticket was plucked from a tumbler filled with hundreds of tickets and now he gets an orientation flight in the P-51 “Crazy Horse” operated by Stallion 51.

The raffle is a benefit for Mercy Flight and Angel Flight SE, whose volunteer pilots provide free air transportation to life-saving medical appointments for people who otherwise could not get there. While pilots donate their airplanes, fuel and flight hours to complete thousands of flights year after year, the non-profit organization relies on donations and fundraising to pay for support services and to keep passengers and pilots in the air.

The raffle prize includes a one-hour P-51 orientation flight at Stallion 51’s headquarters in Kissimmee, Florida, in its dual cockpit-dual control P-51 Mustang, a pre-flight briefing, cockpit orientation, hands-on flight, post-flight briefing, flight video, photo with pilot and aircraft, and flight certificate.
