Tamiya P-51D, 'Petie 2nd', John C. Meyer.
This is the Tamiya 1/48 P-51D Mustang, marked as John C. Meyer's "Petie 2nd".

1/48 Airfix F-51 "Rotation Blues"
Here is my take on Airfix's Korean War F-51. Great kit with excellent value. Built OOB with a few scratchbuilt modifications- namely a seat cushion with seat belts and some additional Korean War radio equipment that was not included in [...]
P-51 B Kovozavody Prostejov Operation Frantic-2
Well, it's the end of the year. This is the fourth Mustang I've built in 12 months. The latter is so special that I come back to the KP brand again, having much more experience. So this time I will start unusually with a description of the [...]
