• 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.

P-51D-5-NA 44-13398 was the first D-model to be delivered to the 352nd FG, just after D-Day. It was assigned to the 486th FS CO, Major Willie O Jackson, and received the registration J and a full set of invasion stripes by the 15th of june. Before the start of the Shuttle Mission to Russia and Italy, which began on 21 june, it received the characteristic blue nose of the 352nd FG. Maj jackson used this aircraft to claim three kills on 18 & 19 july 1944. The aircraft was lost over France on 17 august 1944, with Lt William Reese at the controls. Luckily, he managed to escape the Germans.
Of course the tail is wrong, it should not have a fin fillet, apart from all the other details, but I thought it would make a nice paint anyway for the A2A Mustang.
Available now on OZx.
