North American P-51D Mustang · 1987
You colored this airplane in the book – here you can find it as a model kit, model or movie. In the book on page 41.
The Mustang has a particularly smooth laminar-flow wing and its radiator under the fuselage – both reduce drag. With drop tanks it could escort bombers from England deep into Germany. The D version got the bubble canopy with all-round view.
