Mmm. Shame about the taking off and landing characteristics then. And the fact that as soon as you get anywhere you have to turn around again as you've run out of fuel! Grin

They can now! I picked the Mustang, but I'm slightly biased, since my grandfather owns one and I've flown in it before. Plus, it looks better.  Wink

"If it looks right, it probably is".

Mustang FTW!

I was lucky to see one lyin at an airshow last year... Sound is unmatched... Except by the Spitfire and the Lancaster... But that's the only thing they have in common Tongue

I think it's a 50/50 deal. P-51D and the MK XIV Spit that is. If I had the money I don't know which one I would choose. Need to have five I guess, P-51D, MK XIV, F8F, F4U-4, and the best looking Brit fighter, the Hawker Sea Fury. Not too much to ask for......is it??

Peter Teichman has the money & did just that, well almost. http://www.hangar11.co.uk/
If you really want to know which is best he would be the man to ask.

Was looking through a Mustang website the other day. A history of surviving Mustangs. One listed, still flying today, Petie II I think, it was bought in 1957 as surplus for $755.00. I was making that kind of money then!!!     Cry
