It was a toss up between this, the Turbine Duke and the Flight 1 Islander....

Yeah not sure about the whistle...must listen carefully next time I hear a Mustang. Its a fantasically modelled aircraft inside and out...probably the best in my hangar (very nice Jankees repaint as well - can we have a Dove of Peace & a Wellington TAF repaint next pretty please? smile.gif ) . I liked the idea of flying warbird as kitted out today and will make a great companion to my Realir Spitfire...I need to brush up my landing skills as its a bit more difficult than the Spitfire. All I need now is a nice late model Kittyhawk (and perhaps a Seafury), although I'm still keen on getting an A2A product one day -- I'm waiting for the MkV Spitfire.

The model I got was the Part 2 version which includes "Little Rebel" which is an ex RNZAF Mustang so I wrapped Jankees repaint around this ..perfect match!

Multiplay is a bit difficult with kids sleeping not to far from my PC...

Mustangs are very photogenic...

thumbup1.gif thumbup1.gif great screens Paul.......you will spend hours in this thing, its great. Re the landing part....do you find its real hard to slow it down.?...seems that unless your on a 20 mile final...it just wants to keep going cool.gif .....good choice....the Duke is......well, its.....ugly, and the Ialander is cool but i think it could become a little dull after a while....just depends what you want i guess.
The Stang is a great all rounder.....good looking, fast, its got the range.....its great being a Stangman. smile.gif Looking forward to more screens .....go Nakistang thumbup1.gif

mmmm nice - and great repaint - came within a gnat's whisker of a flight in this - until the bank manager intervened sad.gif .

I've been away and trying to catch up with all thats happening in NZFF. One of the downsides of some of these posts it that everyone assumes that everyone else knows what they're talking about. I dont! Whose 'stang is this and where can I obtain the 'paint please?

Cheers

About to ask the same question. Would venture a guess on Warbirdsim, the hallmark of P51's.

Thank you Oldendirt - your guess came up trumps. If i can return the favour - the paint can be found here -

Mustangs don't generally whistle - unless the gunports aren't sealed.

The big whistler is the Corsair, through those big oil coolers on the wing roots, especially on a hot day when the vents are open a tad.
