Korean War F51-D Mustang 18th FBW 67th FBS "Red Scarves" Maj. Arnold 'Moon' Mullins
This is a major rework of the stock p_51d for cfs3.
Features:
1. New virtual cockpit with excellent POV with good orientation. In other words you get a sense of being inside the cockpit, enough of the cockpit frame, fuselage, etc is visible to keep your orientation correct.
2. New instrument panel with accurate P51 gauges.
3. Rear view mirror, now you can watch your six by using the F6 key.
4. Accurate Korean War payloads including 75gal drop tanks and Napalm.
History:
Part of the 18th FBG the 67th FBS, known as the "Red Scarves" while flying Mustangs, was one of the more important Mustang units to operate during the Korean War. One of only 3 Squadrons to fly Mustangs for a majority of the conflict, transitioning over to F-86F Sabres in early 1953.
The plane represented here was the personal mount of Major Arnold "Moon" Mullins, on of the most famous Mustang pilots of the war. Major Mullins was credited with the destruction of 4 Yak-9's, 2 in the air, within minutes of each other, and 2 others on the ground.
"Arnold 'Moon' Mullins, a P-38 veteran of WWII, where he had been shot down over Europe and evaded capture was, at age 30, promoted to Lieutenant Colonel soon after completing his Combat Tour and leaving the 67th Squadron in Korea. He was reassigned to a Tactical Air Command base in South Carolina in early 1951, developing air-to-ground communications procedures for Close Support operations. He was killed in the crash of a T-33 jet trainer aircraft in 1952 while demonstrating those tactical maneuvers." Duane E. 'Bud' Biteman, Lt. Col, USAF, Ret
