This might not be quite the right place to post this, but, rather than post it in the modelling forums, I thought perhaps more people can enjoy this beautiful model if shown here.
This is a large (I think around 1/8th scale), 'scratch-built', metal, P-51D, now on display in the main entrance foyer of the RAF Museum, Cosford, and photographed during my visit yesterday.
In the markings of Capt. Donald Emerson, of the 4th FG, 8th USAAF, Debden, UK, the model, or perhaps more correctly, 'engineering miniature', has been built by the same person who built a similar Spitfire replica, on show at the RAFM, Hendon.
The pictures speak for themselves, but just to clarify, those images which appear to be upside-down and laterally reversed, are shots of the underside taken in the mirror base of the display plinth, the size of which can be judged by the surroundings, and my mate Mick, behind the display case.
