Late production Mustangs sometimes has a slightly more bulged canopy known as 'Dallas hood' .
Some of the Mustangs operated by the Dutch air force in the Netherlands East Indies were fitted with these hoods!
Title: Re: North American P-51 Mustang
Post by: No.1 on November 20, 2009, 11:37:48 PM
I first time met this type of hood in the old 1/72 scale model of Mustang by Heller.

For the next three years the squadron operated as a tactical reconnaissance squadron, first around the UK coast line, look for the possible German attacks. In June 1943, the squadron was equipped with Mustang I's.

In September 1944 the squadron became part of the Second Tactical Air Force (2 TAF) and moved to Belgium and completed its service at Eindhoven, in Holland.

Found this during the large 2-days aviation fair at Aviodrome this week-end.
Don't know if it is original or reprint, but even if it is a reprint it is from original AP 2025G-P.N. document of June 1944.
Pilot notes are for UK Mustang Mk. III fitted with Malcom hood.
I had to pay a whole full one EURO for this booklet!!

Post by: Nico Braas on November 22, 2009, 10:01:41 PM
Main question remains unanswered: is it original or reprint?
In view of the price I paid, I think it is reprint!!
Title: Re: North American P-51 Mustang
Post by: Nico Braas on November 22, 2009, 10:16:30 PM
At least THIS one is the real original document! Got it some days ago from one of my Aviodrome colleagues.
I already had the scanned version, but now I have also the original 'hard copy' pilot notes!
Title: Re: North American P-51 Mustang
Post by: No.1 on November 22, 2009, 10:23:22 PM
It is impossible to know its originality if you does not have somewhere printed that. So- it is one € and your 1002 nd book :) Good about Machtrainer... 1003 rd book ;)

Hi mate,  :-salut

Very good work for a very pretty plane.  :-ok  :-obey
But... No French P-51 at all... Armée de l'air has had P-51Cs and P-51Ds (and too some F-6Cs and F-6Ds).  :-evil

Like those ones :
F-6D-10-NA Mustang of ER 2/33 'Savoie'
(http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j215/jicehem/th_NorthAmericanF-6D-10-NAMustangsn44-.jpg) (http://s81.photobucket.com/albums/j215/jicehem/?action=view&current=NorthAmericanF-6D-10-NAMustangsn44-.jpg)

and : F-6C Mustang
