Are you sure thats not a P-51B, didn't the D have the bubble canopy.

Nice shot by the way.

I was even wondering if that was an A-36 Apache,

what, with the rocket tubes and bombs :o, it looks like its loaded for ground attack, more than aerial combat ?...

Richie is right, that is a 51B, all Ds have a bubble canopy. Well spotted Richie

There is also a nice Gmax Reno package that works great in 2004. Here is one of the paint schemes

It's actually listed here under 2004 props on the first page :o

Fine. Crap all over my picture. >:(

That's what it said on the planes list in CFS 3. P-51D "Berlin Express".

Thanks for the comments, guys. GrabClipSave really helps.

Nice pic man. A-36 never sereved in the ETO, and I believe it had an Allison engine, and not a Merlin.

No thats a actually a P-51C

Note the difference in canopies. The one on the top is a P-51B and the one on the bottom is a P-51C.

Here's a better pic of a P-51B

No, the B could be fitted with the Malcom Hood canopy. The B and C were basicly the same, just made in different factories, I believe.

That canopy was only used a few times on the British versions if I remember correctly, but it wasn't the only one they used...
