In my castle....
Just started (well, a while ago) on two Hasegawa P-51's. First up will be P-51D-25 #44-72854, Captain William B. Lawrence Jr./Captain Alan J. Kinvig "KWITCHERBITCHIN" from 457th FS/506th FG Iwo Jima '45 and P-51D-15 #44-15011, Lt. Harold E. Whitmore 356th FG "The Lord is my Shepherd"....

More will probably follow as time goes by....

Two Mustangs at the same time with everything else which is going on with Group Builds... When do you get time for sleep Jan? Great start on this two kits. Keep up the good work.
 
Cheers lads, apprecieated! Not to worry about sleep or anything, these has been lying in the boxes for about a month. Should get back to them in time....:oops: :lol:
 
Cheers lads, appreciated! Thinking about the Iwo Jima Mustang, was it common that it was more than one pilot to a machine?

Yes Lucky, unless it was Group CO's ship, most everybody in the flight would fly a specific Mustang. The pilot assigned to the ship by seniority (RHIP) had 'naming rights and would fly this ship except when damaged or under maintenance.

For example, my father always had WR-B but others would fly it when he wasn't flying that day..
