was BBBB your prior identity?  were you in JG3? were you a policeman in Baltimore?  if yes then  I think you are the same guy.  If not then I'm outta line and I'll find another reason to despise you.  I don't want to look through two years of threads to bring that up, but it occurred.  anyway you offered up a complaint on the pony and I offered up a practical resolution to your problem.  what thanks do I get for my thoughtful suggestion?  I get attitude!  :D   lighten up mate.  come into the CT and put me in my place inspire me with your cartoon flying abilities.  when you do taunt me little as well.  oh hell, taunt me a lot.  :D

 That didnt stop ppl from flying the hell out of the CHog. It would make one hell of a buff killer. So I could see it being over used.

Storch the only reason you came here was to post a smart arse comment.  Which is no different than how you treat people in the CT so it's not surprising.  

The question wasn't for you or anyone else here it was for the HTC. The complaint is no different than the same complaints that pilots in WWII had.  Hence why Robert Malcom designed the "Malcom" canopy.

in mustangton of course.

Commonwealth aviation built 200+ P51s in Austrailia as the CA-18 IIRC.  they were also considered to be better built than their North American built counterparts.  The aussies also produced a competitor to the P-51.  The CA-15 (A62) Kangaroo was powered by a Griffon 61.  having been designed in 1943 and first flew in 1946.  This aircraft outclassed the P-51 but was never put into production.

The p51 is already remodelled in AH1 so expect the waiting time like we had on the second and third P38.

Goodluck!!

Well, it's been well over 5 posts now, so I feel safe to post this.
Wasn't the "Mustang" with the 4 20mm hispanos actually called the A-36 Apache?
Maybe one of the "Mustang" experten here could correct me if I'm wrong, but I think they were mainly used for ground operations in the MTO and North Africa.  I think it had the origianl Allison engine, and that's why is wasn't used much in the air-air and escort role.
Now if they wanted to put 4 20mm's on a P-51D pony.......
