Finally, great work! It is indeed about time. Now make it downloadable. Can't see myself flying any other livery much once I have that one installed. :)

ESOW? MDH, by any chance?

Cheers,

Thanks, this one's been on my mind for a long time now, finally I made it! :)
Yep, I put a couple of years into MDH, though it's been about 14 years since! (I'm gettin' old! :? )

So here's the final version, been fiddling with her too many hours now! :wink: Now I'm off to se the remaining half of the world cup finals! :mrgreen:

Looks like a great job Mattias - thanks! I'll download and give it a try later. Have to confess though it's been a few months since I've fired up the Mustang (mil. or civil) so the first couple of circuits could be... interesting!

Thanks! Yeah after some time with the cherokee the mustang can be quite overwhelming with it's power! My first takeoff was not pretty after a few weeks off! :)

Great work!! Thanks!!

Been waiting for this one. Saw the bird last year at a airshow in sweden. I took som pics of the plane + in the cockpit when I helped the pilot Par Cederquist to push the mustang away from display before startup. You did a great job with the repaint.

Cheers,
Thomas:)

Great paint, that would make it look like it is moving fast while it is sitting on the ground :D

Keep smiling
