• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I have A.F. Scrub's TP-51B Mustang that I can't identify the squadron that used it.

Here's a picture. Which squadron used it?

I think it might've been used by the 78th FG, which had Mustangs with black and white chequered noses. They were based at Duxford, if I'm correct, and the TP-51B was a field conversion from a single seater. It would have been used as a squadron hack, the "WW" on the tail was "War Weary".
 
Leave the checkered nose and change the serial # on the tail and you should be good to go. :encouragement: The aircraft is just about right for P-51B 42-106826, a converted two-seater flown by the 78th Fighter Group (per Mark's previous post). Here are a couple pics...
