Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
The North American P-51 Mustang had a humble genesis as a British request for single engine escort fighter. The projects in the book take the modeller from the aircraft's beginnings to the ultimate manifestation of this elegant and deadly bird, the F-82 G/H Twin Mustang. The North American P-51 Mustang had a humble genesis as a British request for single engine escort fighter. 'Dutch' Kindelberger's North American design team created, in just six months, a prototype that would become, arguably, World War II's most important fighter aircraft. The aircraft was designed around the innovative laminar flow wing, which resulted in a much more efficient flow of air across the top of the wing, thereby reducing drag and increasing range. Modelling is the perfect format to appreciate this revolutionary design feature which created a highly maneuverable plane with excellent range.
This book pays attention to the crucial details and methods needed to model the Mustang, at differing skill levels and with unique finishing tips and styles - showing the benefits of scratch built components, all illustrated in a clear concise and easy to use manner.

Military modelers will relish Stan Spooner's MODELLING THE P-51 MUSTANG, an in-depth survey of how to model World War II's famous fighter craft. From the history of the Mustang to five building projects of varying complexity, military and hobbyist holdings will find this an excellent pick.

Another in the great series of Osprey Modelling books, Modelling the P-51 Mustang by Stan Spooner has only one fault, the title is just a little to short. If the book had been titled "Modelling the P-51 Mustang in 1/48 Scale" it would have much more accurate. If your only intrest is 1/48th scale, then this book is perfect for you and it deserves 5 stars. However, if you model in 1/72, 1/32, or 1/144th then you, like me, will be a bit disapointed with the coverage. If the title had told me this up front I would have know what to expect. Other than this one issue, I highly recommend the book.
