Video Description

#p51mustang #aviationhistory #ww2 Major William Shomo’s F-6D Mustang was a heavy, sluggish "camera plane" that "real" fighter pilots mocked as the "Tourist." Weighed down by massive K-17 and K-22 surveillance cameras where the main fuel tank should have been, Shomo was considered a non-combatant by his own side and a harmless target by the enemy. But when Shomo and his wingman spotted a Japanese formation of 13 aircraft over Luzon, the "Flying Undertaker" didn't follow the rules of retreat. He flipped a switch, dove his overweight reconnaissance plane into the enemy squadron, and unleashed the fastest streak of aerial kills in history. This is the true story of the "Milk Run Massacre" and the "Tourist" who became an Ace in a Day.
