Dick Carville’s new P51
« on: January 29, 2025, 05:18:22 PM »
Maybe Dick will hope on and give the details. This was built from plans and was designed by Clair Siverling back in the 60’s making it classic legal.
This is his second one.

I flew Dick’s first P-51, what a nice flying stunter!  He had a ST 46 for power, seemed to be a perfect match. All his ships are gorgeous, too!

 Looks really great, but...

He is not finished with it. He has the stacks off the first one to add.

Also needs a power system. 

It looks awesome.

 I hate to be "that guy" but hopefully there's still a chance then of fixing the wing insignia?
