Cover Picture - The Imperial War Museum's preserved P-51D Mustang WZ-I 472258 on display at Duxford, photographed by Neville Franklin. One of the most colourful of a colourful breed, this aircraft would make an attractive model using Airfix's new 1:72 scale kit (or even in 1:24 scale). This would not be as difficult as it might sound because Ren-Models of 63 Fitzroy Street, Cambridge, can supply sets of Aviation Historical Associates' transfers for this machine at 56p plus 12p postage. This sheet is a real bargain, because it also contains markings for another colourful Mustang, 'Jersey Jerk'.
