The Right P51 Mustang

This is it... This is the definitive Mustang. Just got my first, albeit it early morning/late flight, and three words... Wow... Wow... WOW... :ernae:

She is stunning and accurate and real to every little detail. WBS has knocked this thing outta the park! Not to mention it's beautifully optimized, so it runs very smoothly. This P-51 will get me back from my month long FSX hiatus.

The VC, sounds, and models are just incredibly detailed, not to mention a very nice flight model. :ernae:

Thanks for the amazing sale. Very worth every penny at either price. :ernae:
 
Accuracy

As John has pointed out, it has been almost an obsession for us to get things right. I crawled over many D models over here in the UK and put together hundreds of photo sets for John. Knowing full well that he would do it justice and would not settle until we had, what we could see in the photographs and on plans.
I sat in 'Janie' at Hardwick back in January 2008 for 4hrs photographing every nook and cranny and soaked up the views out and position of the K-14 relative to your face. It does seem pretty close to you in the real deal. Hopefully we captured that in the models.

it was not a competition of who can make the best Mustang, but merely the fact that we wanted to get it right for ourselves first.

Thanks to everyone for the very nice comments here, it makes it all worthwhile.

A few poeple have expressed a dislike of the sounds. We used unmixed straight recordings of the Packard V-1650, on the ground up to 2800 rpm, which true enough is not full boost, but pretty close without the aircraft being tethered. The sounds in the air are to close to boost. Peter Teichman who flew me twice, is an extremely careful an attentive owner of Warbirds and nothing is ever pushed or overcooked.

The next aircraft after Little Friends II will be given the same level of attention.

We have firm plans, but I would be interested to know what people would like to see!

Personally, I would love to see a good B-26 Marauder

but meanwhile, here's me, playing with your baby:

I would love the A-20/Boston/P-70 series done to Warbirdsim detail. The A-20 is one of my favs and seems to be the red headed step child of twins in FS.
