Nice skin.  Guess I missed it when you (or anyone from the 412th) picked me off someone who wanted to actually play the game.  :salute

"Pony" is what the unwashed masses call a P-51 Mustang....   ;) Any serious student of WWII aviation would rather apply a hot steam iron to their testicles before using that term.

In WWII the generally used name was P-51. Some pilots did use the term "Mustang", but no one muttered the sobriquet, "Pony". It's the aviation equivalent of saying "dude" rather than a proper name (skillkill, take note).

So, if you want to sound like you have some knowledge of the WWII aviation history, avoid the term "Pony" and use P-51 or Mustang. In an online game, perception IS reality.

I agree.  Ho'ers are easy kills.  They are usually "one trick ponies" (pun intended) and a little of that pilot stuff often bags you a kill.
