diamant Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 Hello to all, I would like to share with you the final photos of our North American P51 Mustang series. We couldn't make it without the support and help of many people, specially: Colin Ford, David William Muir, Piet Van Schalkwky, Stefaan Surgeon, Buster West, Carl Vincent, Phil Listemann, Martin Pelz, Jagan Pillarisetti and Luis Cid among others. It is very exciting for us to have received such help from people with so much knowledge in the field. That makes us try to make our future projects better. My father made all of them in 8 months of hard work. I spent a similar time to do the research of each one. As always we have tried to represent the history of selected aircraft, in this case the North American P51 Mustang, in our collection's scope during WWII. There probably some some mistakes but in summary we believe it has come quite nice This is the third largest's series of our collection after the Spitfire (120) and Hurricane (110) All of them together (62 models). All the Mk I Mk IA Mk II Mk III Mk IV Others Some special groups SAAF RAAF Southern Cross's 112 Sqn Now resting in our display cabinets This is the list of each model done: 1 North American P51 Mustang A-36 Apache HK944 C 1437 Strategic Reconnaissance Flight Foggia, Italy 16011 2 North American P51 Mustang A-36 Apache EW998 A&AEE March 1943 3 North American P51 Mustang I AG351/G Air Fighting Development Unit (A.F.D.U.)
