Haitian Mustang

[The Migrant]

This is the second 1/72 Airfix new-tool P-51D I've built this year, it's one of my favourite kits. This one's finished as a civilian postwar F-51D that was pressed into military service in Haiti in 1963. It carried F-86 drop tanks, which were sourced from a damaged Special Hobby kit. Markings are from my own 1/72 decal sheet 'Postwar Ponies'.

That is just stunning Mike, beautiful work, the panel lines and colour just enhance the lines of this aircraft.
