6 50.s in the P-51 B
« on: April 12, 2008, 06:29:42 PM »
It was fitted in later models. And a very easy change. Also keep the 4 .50s for a gun pack.
Don't shoot a "deer" they may shoot back.

the 51B's fine with just the 4 .50cals. Dont know why you want the 51B to have 6 .50's when you can just fly the 51D.

If you can't hit something with a Bpony, fly a Dpony...

Because some people prefer the B.  It is a better maneuvering plane and is faster than the D at some altitudes.

The B Pony never had 6 60s.  51D wing was adapted to fit 6.  B pony wing was not the same.

Well, since we all talking about the P-51, add the 51 with the 20mms .  :devil

It was the P51 (no alphabetical designation). And, it had an Allison engine and a ribcage canopy. So, think P40 w/ 20mms...

If memory serves the only difference between the B and C models was the plant the plane was assembled at.
