P-51 Mustang

I found out last night that my Grandfather has arranged another appointment with a P-51 pilot for August 21st. Back in 2003, around the time that I went to Ireland, my Grandfather made the offer to his kids to pay for them to go up in a P-51 Mustang (the planes he piloted during WWII) and offered to go half and half with his grandkids. I couldn't have even considered it then since I had just spent many dollars off in Ireland, but I am doing much better financially now. My share would be three hundred dollars and I think it would be an incredible experience. I'm a little apprehensive about it, worrying that I will be the one person that it's a little too much for and I'll throw up. I don't think I'm really delicate stomached, but I would hate being the one that it upset. I think I've pretty much talked myself into doing it if for no other reason than being a P-51 pilot was very important to my Grandfather and I think it would be wonderful to share in that with him.
