In the pictures with the FR Buzz Numbers, if they all had the photo lens on the port side of the fuselage, wouldn't that make the F-6D/RF-51Ds? There are a few that have the camera lens and are labeled P-51Ds.

If you go to the source of the photos, the ones with the "RF" buzz numbers are all identified as RF-51D.

Not to be argumentative.... but.... If you read the captions of the first couple of groupings of the FR marked aircraft, there are several identified as P/F-51D's not F-6/RF-51Ds. Yes, I am being a picker of gnats. :drink3:
