One of the highlights of last Saturday’s Bray Air Display was the unmistakable sight and sound of the North American P-51 Mustang Marinell, expertly flown by renowned display pilot Isabel Rutland. The legendary World War II fighter captivated spectators along the seafront with a graceful yet powerful aerobatic routine that showcased both the aircraft’s historic significance and outstanding performance capabilities.
This newly released onboard video places viewers in the cockpit for a pilot’s-eye perspective of the display, offering a unique insight into the precision and skill required to present one of aviation’s most iconic warbirds. Filmed during the Bray Air Display on 1st August 2026, the footage captures the sights, sounds and excitement of flying the celebrated Mustang over one of Ireland’s premier airshow venues.
