Have a writing here about one pilot who was a early P-51C/B driver - in the 8th unit dairies saying when damaged 38 on one sortie "the wheel" it helped getting him home , were he said with the Mustang he would have bailed .. so many War stories and the different things that happened .

Thanks Alister Would be one show not to miss - mind in saying that i missed the Mossie , just pleased so many of these really getting out in the open , so many people really spend so much .. imagine the moneys you could have made with foresight , believe that is starting to happen .

I've always had a soft spot for these birds but was disppointed when I checked out the Just Flight trial one and so never got it. I presume that this is an all round better model? What's the cockpit and instrumentation like in this one?
