The Red Series is back with another issue devoted to the P-51 Mustang. This time the authors focused on the planes used in Europe, choosing the following schemes:
- Mustang III FZ111, coded WC-V, usually flown by F/L Mieczyslaw Gorzula: No. 309 (Polish) Squadron, No. 133 (Polish) Wing, based at RAF Andrews Field, UK, May 1945,
- Mustang IV KH663, coded PD-L, usually flown by W/O Leszek Bisanz: No. 303 (Polish) Squadron, 3rd Polish Fighter Wing, based at RAF Hethel, UK, 1946,
- Mustang IVA KM112, coded PD-D, assigned to S/L Witold Lokuciewski: No. 303 (Polish) Squadron, 3rd Polish Fighter Wing, based at RAF Hethel, UK, 1946.
All planes are presented and described in a 12 page, full-color guidebook, which also includes five archive photos. One of the aircraft carries attractive nose art applied by the crew. The decals were printed by Cartograf. They include individual and national markings for all three schemes.
