Watching the Discovery channel documentary of Walter Cronkites story this evening, 1953 footage was shown of CBS rushing QE's Coronation film reels across the Atlantic to be the first to air them in the US. Reportedly an RAF Canberra carried it to a certain point, and then the reels were carried the rest of the way to New York in a P-51. Ever so briefly, it was on screen coming to the airport. It looked to have a bare metal finish, a darker colored spear or scallop from the nose area with a CBS-eye logo, and the pegasus logo from that gas company just behind the cockpit glass on the razorback. It looked just fantastic. I cannot find an image of it online, and accounts I have read claim it was Jimmy Stewart's P-51C.

Does anyone have more on this? A skin would be great, but since the footage was black & white, and I wasn't taping the show, all I have is a good guess about what it really looks like.

Anyone? Anyone? Buehler?
