I found a P-51D model quite a while ago. It was very well done. One of the variations was titled "The Dream." It had a beautiful VC and a placard on the panel that read "WARNING Simming is (or maybe it was "may be") hazardous to your health." The model was painted olive drab. Anybody remember it?

My system: AMD Phenom 9500 cpu, 2 x eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS Superclocked vidcards (640Mb DDR3 each), Zalman "sunflower" 9700 fan, Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 mobo, 4Gb G.Skill PC2-6400 DDR2 800Mhz RAM, 2 x Sony 20X DVD writers, Thermaltake Toughpower 850W modular p/s, 7 x 120mm fans, Windows XP Home and SP3, 2 x 250Gb Western Digital SATA-300 HDs (1 for apps, 1 for storage and precious files backup), CoolerMaster CM 690 case, NOD-32. Won't run FSX. Locks up a lot with FS9, too.

I looked there and did not find the exact one I was seeking. I remember the VC having quite a few active buttons, one of which was the canopy release. Putting the cursor on the release lever raised a pop-up that read "Canopy release. Do not open canopy in flight. They cost heaps." or words very close to that. I am certain about "they cost heaps" portion...
