WOW!! Cool, can we download it?

Don Beerbower is one of my all time heroes, he's also from Minnesota. I've met his wife she's a real nice gal. BTW, Bonnie B is his daughter that he only met - I think twice - before he was KIA.

There were also some early D-Stangs without that fillet.
LouIV flown by Lt.Col Christian is such an example.

What is a fillet?
Do you guys mean that dorsal "fin" that goes from the back of the fuselage to the tail, to improve stability?

[Tesla]

Yes, that's it, the extended rudder. Instead of being at nearly a 100 degree angle from the front of the rudder to the fuselage on earlier P51's, the rudder is "filleted" to about a 10 degree angle. It's to increase the surface area of the rudder and whatnot.

Oh man that is a great skin!

[Tesla]

The skin is on M4T, a couple great skins for P51B and C.
