Title: Commonwealth Ponys.
Post by: lyric1 on August 07, 2011, 08:44:45 PM
Since pony skins are in fashion I thought I would start adding a few Commonwealth pony's from time to time for the skinners to consider.

Yes that is right other country's flew this aircraft other than the USA.

So starting off SAAF 5 squadron Sweet Pea.



Mustang Mk.IVa, 5 Sqn SAAF, GL-N, serial unk, Pilot: unk, Italy, circa May 1945.
RAF Dark Green/ Ocean Grey/ Med Sea Grey scheme. White codes, Red Spinner & Black serials. RAF Sky fuselage band
has been painted out.  Black/White insignia below the cockpit as per detail drawing. 40" 'C' type upper wing roundels.
Roundels and fin flash have the Orange centres often associated with SAAF airframes.

Nice epics. I've never seen a louvered vent panel on the underside of the nose, either solid or with holes.

Post by: jocko- on August 19, 2011, 06:47:24 PM
Yeah, the louvres aren't usually seen on the breather panels until the Mk IV Mustang. A few Mk IIIs had them too.
