This old family photo is of some of the aircraft maintenance crew of the 49th Fighter Squadron during the Korean War. The aircraft is, of course, a P-51 Mustang. I know, I know, by the time the Korean War began the Army Air Corps had become the US Air Force and the Mustang was given the new designation of "F-51". Picky, picky. I however, like the old, World War II designation of "P-51" because the model airplane I built at age eleven was a P-51 Mustang that came in a box with an illustration of the sleek American fighter shooting down a German ME-109. So that's where the name comes from: an eleven-year-old boy inspired by an old photo who also may have been somewhat high from model glue fumes.
