Alain95/anybody

Do you know the numbers on Lt William Green (302FS) P-51 and Capt Alfonse Davis (99FS) P-51?
Are they part of your (Alain95) P-51B standalone uploads? I have been trying to get that info without success.

Please let me know

God bless

Serial number or airplanes codes... I'm sorry i have no information about their airplanes, sur it's not easy to find. The aspect of the P-51B may have change because they were coming from other squadrons with various coloured stripes, and I didnt' find any pilot/ a/c listing.
So these peoples were not a part of my upload. I'm finishing a set of P51B/C from the Checkertails clan and will be happy to share it soon.

Just found this on William Green :

Talking of Mustangs, Alain, if you could find time to do one or two RAF Mustang IIIs, that would please me no end! Your American stuff is first class...

I have the Osprey book on the 332nd FG but there are no profiles of the aircraft in question. Green's aircraft is referenced as P-51C 44-10943 lost on 13 October 1944 to flak (Green survived). Davis was killed on 29 October 1944 leading a three ship escort for a recon F-5 Lightning. There is no reference to serial number or what model Mustang he was flying.

Thanks Nigel,
The Mk III is in my plans, but for instance I didn't find any clear paint shemes for the
WINGS
as you have a good knowledge and experience on the Spits and Hurricanes I tought you could
help me in my research, on the UK P-51B ?

All the best
