File Description:
A repaint only for the payware Warbirdsim product 'Mustang Tales'. This repaint depicts the restored P-51D-30-NA 44-74391, "February", registered N351MX. This aircraft was delivered to the USAAF on May 23, 1945, too late to see action in WWII. The aircraft served state-side in the post-WWII years, with many different fighter squadrons, including the California and Illinois Air National Guard. In 1958, the aircraft began service with the Guatemalan Air Force, where it remained until 1972 when it was purchased as a civilian flyer and brought back to the U.S. For years the aircraft was stored in Texas until being sold in 2000 and restoration work began. Owned by film maker Chris Woods, the aircraft was restored in the markings of the P-51D that was flown during WWII by fighter ace Lt. James L. "Jim" Brooks, named "February", as part of the 307th FS, 31st FG, based in Italy. In 2009, the aircraft was sold to the Friedkin family/Comanche Fighters warbird collection, based in Texas, and the aircraft has been an active participant of the Horsemen aerobatic team. This repaint features new bump maps, wheel well, gun bay, and cockpit textures.
