P51 Mustang on Dogfight channel

http://www.history.com/minisite.do?cont ... i_id=51833

on the latest show with P51 escorting bombers over Germany they re-enacted the P51 dogfights. 8) and, on some other forums, the P51 haters ran amuck saying how biased and wrong the show is... they claim Oleg's model is right and the History channel is wrong...

sickening.... our Mustang was neutered completely... so sad..
:evil:

it's a shame we can't correct the nightmare..

Whats the first image that pops into someone's head when you say P-51 Mustang?

The bubble top D model right? People often forget this but the Mustang that did most of the work in Europe was the razorback B's and C's. These could easily hold their own against the 109's and 190's they were facing in 1943-1944.

The D was much heavier than the other models. Heavier means bigger wing loading, and thus makes your turn rate suffer.
