Nothing is impossible as long as somebody else has to do it.

I build 1/48 scale WW2 fighters.
Have fun.
Cdn Colin I could be wrong, but I don't think the Malcom hood came into use until after the P-51B/C came out. I haven't seen any picutures of an Allison engined mustang with a Malcom hood.

Picked this kit up last week. It's going to be the first airplane kit I have built in 50 years. It comes with a melcolm hood. Questions. Did the P51A use it, and did it open from the side, or a slide open? I'll also pick up a seat and exhaust from Ultra cast. The last mustang I built was Monogram's P51B. It was new in box in 1969.
