Description
The North American Aviation P-51 Mustang is an American long-range, single-seat fighter and fighter-bomber used during World War II and the Korean War, among other conflicts. The Mustang was designed in April 1940 by a team headed by James H. Kindelberger[5] of North American Aviation (NAA) in response to a requirement of the British Purchasing Commission. The commission approached NAA to build Curtiss P-40 fighters under license for the Royal Air Force (RAF). Rather than build an old design from another company, NAA proposed the design and production of a more modern fighter. The prototype NA-73X airframe was rolled out on 9 September 1940, 102 days after the contract was signed, and first flew on 26 October.

Replica Of
P-51D-15-NA Mustang "Bunnie" Piloted by:
Dr. Roscoe Conkling Brown Jr. (March 9, 1922 – July 2, 2016) was one of the Tuskegee Airmen and a squadron commander of the 100th Fighter Squadron of the 332nd Fighter Group.
He was appointed to this position in June 1945, which was after VE Day (May 8, 1945). During combat, he served as a flight leader and operations officer only. He graduated from the Tuskegee Flight School on March 12, 1944, as member of class 44-C-SE[1] and served in the U.S. Army Air Forces in Europe during World War II. During this period, on March 24, 1945, mission to Berlin Captain Brown shot down a German Me 262 jet fighter and several days later, on March 31, a Fw 190 fighter (he is credited as the first 15th Air Force pilot to shoot down a jet).[2][3] He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.

I met the real pilor
Great job!
Great 10/10
@SheriffHackdogMCPE most planes that had a large number of flags from a enemy side means, they shot down those planes. For others, they may put little markings. Now, making a notebook full of that is less pleasing than the ones on the side of a plane.
Finally, A Disposable Spot!
@MrCOPTY yeah
@SheriffHackdogMCPE wow 10⁹⁹⁹ Ace
The red tails were colored flyboys bound for glory
@MrCOPTY I remember reading about a British pilot that had a notebook full of swastikas (btw each swastika means a german plane shot down)
@TrippinMidget11222211 Or Allays, If He's And SS Agent ☠️)
@MIAW26PERSIAN ah, yes i see now
@TrippinMidget11222211 yeah he was just joking 😄

@MIAW26PERSIAN Don't Feel, I'm Just Joking
@MrCOPTY aw man sadly this is a WW2 American Fighter 😓

🤣 But Seriously, It's A Really Good Plane
The Plane Has
Swastikas(Left Side/ Udder Canopy), This Against The 7th Rule, Regarding Posts:Don't use offensive symbols, unless they are necessary for historical accuracy (ie - Swastikas should only be used on things like a WW2 German Bomber)
