                        Jeff Ethell's book Fighter Command has two color shots of the 4th FG's WW P-51 conversion in two different paint schemes. The 56th FG had a two-seater P-47D razorback named "Category E". Plenty of pics of that one as well. Hope it helps- Ed

                        Squadron/signal's P-51 Mustang In Action has a brief blurb and a color plate of one. They were all converted by the same unit in the 8th AF(4?? service batallion). Sorry I don't have more.

                        4th fighter group in soft cover has a couple of shots of 2 seaters. They are at the end of the war and painted red, in celebration. Sorry, i don't have a scanner or digital cam to make copies.

                         I may get so drunk, I have to crawl home. But dammit, I'll crawl like a Marine.

                        Rosie,

                        I can help you out with photos of 2-seat Stangs. I'm a bit behind with some other scanning jobs at the moment, but I'll find some good images and get 'em off to 'ya. Shouldn't take too awful long.

                        Fade to Black...

                        I am looking for info on the special 2 seat mustangs that were specifically converted from B and C models. I have a 1/144 scale Revell of Germany P-51B I have stated back in 1995 after a bloke used the same 1/144 kit and scratchbuilt an engine and a complete interior for his twice (one was the kit the other was a cut open demo model), He is my hero!!! I have found a few of the old war weary plane pics and one that is currently being rebuilt. I have the gun bays open on my but the engine is going to remain cowled! I believe the Bloke had his pic taken in an old European Scale Aviation Modeller magazine. folks please help were you can. I have already decided I will have to do all the decals from scratch. Also any references in color are also great but black and white does give me airframes to model after also. I have a copy of the FSM with the 1/48 IKE 2 seat P-51B/C and that really helped too! Thank FSM! Your magazine rocks!
