P-51 Mustangs In Flight

The fighter aircraft that many consider to be the finest of World War Two, the North American P-51 Mustang was brought about by the successful melding of the finest American airframe design and the superlative British Rolls-Royce Merlin V-12 engine. The result was a fighter plane that dominated every other piston-powered aircraft it met in combat. At left is an early model P-51-2, armed with four 20mm cannons. It is one of 150 built. At right are three P-51D's and a P-51B of the 361st Fighter Group of the 65th Fighter Wing, 8th USAAF. Based in Bottisham, England, Nov. 1943 to Sep. 1944.
