It really helps to keep me motivated to carry on with things. A special shout out to @GrzeM and @Wojtek Bulhak for bring this jewel of a kit to us. Thank you and congratulations for the excellent work with our Mustang. Seeing our kit built and reading words of satisfied modeller is the greatest prize for us! Thank you for that! PS. I also appreciate your choice of the markings - maybe it is not the most colourful Mustang I've seen, but its pilot! He was a Person! I really like models built for particular story or person behind them! Edited June 16, 2022 by GrzeM 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks so much, To my shame, I wasn't aware of Leonard Cheshire until I saw Roger Waters performance of "The Wall" from Berlin in 1990. Hence the thread title but after that I found out what an incredible humanitarian he was, to get the chance to model this aircraft was the fulfilment of a long standing wish.

Thanks Mark, Apart from the undercarriage leg doors which were on the wrong sides. , I'm happy with it. I got a very nice PM from @Bedders to tell me very politely that I'd messed up. Now sorted.

Dandie Dinmont Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Just catching up… what an excellent job Alistair. I would say that this is conclusive proof of my contention that the P51 B/C with Malcolm hood is the best looking of all Mustangs, especially when done in this colour scheme (takes cover from the incoming deluge of dissenting opinions).
