This P-51D has often been incorrectly assigned to Col. Benjamin Davis, CO of the 332nd FG as he was pictured flying it in a series of publicity shots to show the commanders of the four 15th AAF Mustang groups, but he had merely stood in for Roscoe Brown. Named "Bunnie" after Brown's daughter, he scored 2 kills in it, one against an Me 262. AEROart The AUTOart "AEROart" range presents detailed, ready-made diecast models of military aircraft.
