This is a repaint for both the WOP P-51D and WWII Fighters P-51D. This aircraft, marked 88 'Little Freddie" was the plane assigned to Captain Freddie Hutchins of the 302nd FS, 332th FG, 15th AF from Ramitelli, Italy. Unfortunately by modern standards, during World War II the US Army practiced a policy of strict segregation of black people, so this Group was entirely manned by black Americans. They were called the Tuskegee Airmen. Their proud claim at the end of the war was that they never lost a single bomber under their escort, which is a tremendous record. Repaints by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paint kit by Shockwave.
