Just hitting the ball out there for this one . Start time will be late fall around November 2010 and will run for 6 months or longer depending on how the time frame is .
Any scale will do just fine and any version of the mustang .
Can use any aftermarket sets as you like ..............
All national markings excepted .
Lets here from you guy's .........

Thanks Guy's !!
This should be a good one if enough guy's and Girl's sign up for it . With all the different marking options and colourful ones we can get a nice collection going .
Hi Anthony , the start date hasn't been set in stone yet so it could start earlier . Glad to have you part of the group !

I guess I'll have to chip in here too, at least since there is time to finish all other campaigns I have in the tube.
It will be a P 51 D, in swedish three-crowns and code "Gul Kalle" (Yellow Kilo), since that's the first Merlin engine I ever heard. Nowadays she flies out of Duxford, so I'll be doing "Twilight tear" for the checkerboard campaign.

I am on for this campaign.

Nothing in my stash though, but by Fall next year I am sure a P-51 will have found its way to my stash.

Well, I just acquired the Dragon 1:32 P-51D and had eventually planned to build it up in a 487th FS scheme. I guess maybe this campaign will be a good chance to see if I can build A/C?

Hi!
I have plenty of Mustangs in all scales (except 1/72) in my stash, so I´ll join this campaign!
Good proposal, there might be a very Colorful rainbow of Mustangs from this!
Cheers!

Thanks Terri, immediately upon your approval I made the trek and purchased the old F-82. This campaign was the deciding factor as I have heard mixed reports about the quality of this one, but you pushed me over the edge. As you can see from the photo it has been shuffled around the shop for a while, but is complete and the decals appear ok. Well, we shall see what sort of mess I end up in next year.

Cheers all
