Nicely done! One thing though, if you're able to do it, to make it more accurate. The Group used the 75 gallon, metal, 'tear drop' tanks.

Ah - thanks Terry. I 'borrowed' the paper tanks deliberately to match the Aeromaster illustration.... DOH! I have the tera drops in the spares box, so may fit them in due course (although I want them for a P51B...)
 
I might have a spare set of 'tear drop' tanks,if you want them, and I have a few colour photos of the Group's P-51s, showing the tanks on the aircraft, and huge piles of them, still in their transit cases.
 
Nicely done, but please post a separate Finished thread and, man, if there's any way you can lighten those pics, it would be a big help to us judges.
