P-51 Lanky Stang

[Eddie M.]

A few folks people have expressed interest in this new project, so I'll bring it out into the sunlight.   Just kinda messin' around with parts from two Mustangs. A couple with jet engines and a couple without. Definately a flight of fancy.

That's weird, just watched 'The Aviator' for the first time tonight!

I like the jets, reverse engineered Ta 283???

Flights of fancy maybe
Worth following up-absolutely
This thread looks very promising.

Build them both!

The first one in invasion stripes and natural metal.

The second one "long nose" mustang in sand and spinach.

Sorry for digging up the past, but whatever happened to these?

Hey! you been holding out on us.  What the heck happened to those?

This is a big coincidence. I found the fuselage and wings yesterday while sorting my mass of parts for whiffing. The engines are going on Ayegor the Attacker and the prop went to the B-25/ P-51 bash (The Pusher) I guess I should dig this out again and see where it goes.

Twilight Zone theme plays.... actually after the Avenger I was going to do a stretch ,16 cylinder ,v tail mustang. But the way you build you'll be done about a year before I am.

That's amazing.....JHM totally failed to mention the horizontal tail configuration of aircraft #2! Has the world gone mad?!?!

BTW I'll take three of aircraft #1 please! Hominahomina! DEFINITELY a Hughes Aircraft shape...."Jet aircraft!.....the way of the future....the way of the future....the way of the future...."

#2 looks like a Reno machine....Red Baron II perhaps? Strega NXT? Dago Green?

To quote the immortal Stone Cold Steve Austin:  "Oh hell yeah!"

That's soooo cool. . .

Well, it's not like it had SPATS! or something!  Anyhow, Eddie: hope these designs BOTH come to the front of the workbench...and soon.

Surely you could get some spats on the jet.
