I always stop and pay attention to a Mustang in the original markings. The A was a great aeroplane to go ranging across Europe shooting up trains and the like. Very cool indeed

She was something special and the German fighter pilot general Adolf Galland recognized that too, but Göring didn't want to hear it.

I have a huge hangar full of 1:72 models here, WWII fighters. I still enjoy it and now I collect more of the exotics, prototypes and machines that are not as well known. The P-51A and the A-36 which was a derivative of the P-51A are in this category. With the Royal Air Force, you always have to be very careful with the camouflage painting when the transition from earth brown and green to ocean gray and green occurs. In the phase of transition, there were both variants in one Squadron. These machines in the picture belong to different squadrons, as can be seen from the first two letters of the identification.
