Looking good Dan. though you do know that the P51 prop was squared at the top and long.

its not done yet

i like that way that JT's blades looked...they seem to twist just right. these were modified some, and will probably be modified some more.

Looking good DanW, The P51 has always been my favorite. Glad to see it get some attention. Will there be any canopy goodies... Reflective looking glass and moving canopy?

Dan - What's the 'x' in P51x for? I think I've missed something here. Looking good, though!

Jag,

It's from the 1st OPS squadron, based out of my C: drive, Texas.

Werner,

The x stands for...well I don't know. Since I don't intend for it to be a replacement to the P51d (because some people may not like a 6 tif paint job on their machines and framerate), I just figured 'x' sounds good. Its sorta like the P38jmod - just a different version of a regular aircraft.

Raider,

Reflections is a possibility in the future, if i can figure out how to do it. Sliding canopy is out of my league for now.

Jag, the aircraft is the former TFC's Moose/Candyman which was sold to the OFMC last year and now sports a natural metal scheme with a yellow nose. Both organisations are based at Duxford Cambridgeshire.

I did the scheme a while back but once Razer updates the P-51D mapping I will re-visit it and give it the once over.
