Duke Hawkins

Of the 15.000 Mustangs that were built, some 8.000 were P-51Ds. Today about 150 of them remain in airworthy condition. The Mustang was a game changer for the allies during the Second World War; for the first time, a fighter aircraft was able to escort the bombers to and from the targets, even if these were deep into enemy territory.

This new book in the Duke Hawkins Classics series shows every part of the P-51D in close detail. We were able to photograph over 40 Mustangs for this book, which includes more than 250 photographs, showing the fuselage, cockpit, wings, and landing gear. And is tradition, an extensive maintenance chapter is included!
