Hello,

I'm looking to find some pictures of the P-51 B Mustang use by the 78th FG for training and conversion pilot from P-47 to P-51 D Mustang.

I have one picture of this Mustang, but do you say if it have many camo for the same aircraft:

Thanks a lot for your help.

l'avion dans le photo n'est pas une version P-51B, c'est une P-51D qui était utiliseé en combat avec l'escadron.

dans le 78th FG on trouve plusieurs P-51B en charge pour la conversion des pilotes, mais aussi des avions biplaces pour des vols de recréation ou comme taxi - le photo de "jasonp51d" montre un avion biplace après la guerre en Europe.

Meilleures salutations de la Suisse

Hello,

Thanks for your help.

Swiss Mustang,
I have made an error for my description. Confusion between the B & D model.
I would like to say if 'Sherman Was Right' has an another decoration or marking on the P-51 D.
