P-51 Walkarounds & Details
North American P-51D Mustang - This is a composite walkaround with shots of at least two, maybe three, different aircraft. As always, be cautious when using restored aircraft as a reference; these are, in essence, 1/1 models and the guys who restore them can make mistakes, just like us...

The subject aircraft is finished in the markings of 'Kit' Carson's 'Nooky Booky IV' and is a non-standard restoration. certain details, like the cockpit, are not finished to the original standards. Nevertheless, this is an interesting view and there are some images which would be useful...

Bud Anderson's P-51 Mustang 'OLD CROW' Web Page - This might fit in a bit better under the 'General P-51 Sites' category, but it deals almost exclusively with the 'Yoxford Boys' and the photo coverage and info included goes way beyond what most general interest sites offer, so here 'tis...
