Here's the old Accurate Miniatures Mustang Ia that I'd started many years ago and finally have painted. As I remember, this goes together quite well with good fit and nice detail. The decals are mostly from the kit sheet with a hand-cut letter T and decal-box serials. The airplane is FD541 and was serving with 268 Squadron. The model depicts the airplane shortly before the D-Day stripes were applied prior to the Normandy invasion. As I was researching this markings selection I found out that a number of Allison-engined Mustangs of the early marks were in store at Maintenance Units and were pulled from storage and prepared for service before the invasion.
