It looks (to me) a lot like a P-40 with its air intake pushed back from the nose and towards the center of the fuselage. Which ain't bad because I really like the Warhawk. But, I personally greatly prefer the P-51D with the 'bubble' cockpit - it's just a classic. But let's be real - you win no matter which way you prefer the P-51!
Taff, sometimes you really need to quit while you are ahead. Those three kills were spectacularly good, but you should have bailed out when you were hit and your aircraft was practically unflyable with a pair of 109s on your six. It's much better to be a living pilot back at base with a replacement aircraft than a dead hero!
"The whine of the engine" actually sounds more like the whistling of the gun barrels, which you would hear in a P-51 while pulling some G. Increasing the AOA of the air over the gun barrels, it's like blowing air over the mouth of a bottle.
@@timonsolus yes but they were the same aircraft. Exactly the same engine and airframe with some different onboard British equipment. But yes, the Mustang Mk III. Beautiful looking fighter in RAF colours.
Great video, though you got a bit greedy at the end there! Would really like to see some more careers or campaigns in the future! They might help you work on your survival skill and bailing practices a bit 🤣
you should have got some height and bailed out... planes can be replaced. Great flying up to that point 👍
everytime i hear rabbit leader robert shaw and BoB 1969 come to mind!
Pretty sure the whistling sound is from the gun ports at the edge of the wing at high angles of attack.
Sometimes you should not wait to bail out.
I really do like the aesthetic of the P-51B, I think it looks way better than the later variants.

Great flying taff except for the "oh bugger" moment at the end!🤣
The external bomber shots were great👍 sorry you crashed but I'm sure you'll be fine.
Officially, that's not a P-51B.
It's a Mustang Mark III (the British designation).
but it says P-51B in the game, even when you take the brits in the career so ...

Yet another lovely video!
Also I think you mean Tilburg instead of Tilberg (unless that the english version ofc).
No, we spell it Tilburg as well.
Honestly prefer the look of razorback/fastback planes over bubble canopy models
The P51H is the best looking of the family, but the B is second place. Such a beautiful plane
P-51D-5, D-30, F-82 Twin
I think Taft likes crashing, must be a pretty nurse back at the squadron hospital
The "Razorback" Mustang! 😅. 🏴👍
a little time in the intensive care unit you'll be fine. However, your crew chief might want a word
Ouch landing for sure.
Good show. You just need to stop criss-crossing in front of the enemy. You were already on borrowed time doing that.
In most combat flight sims 1/4 Flaps can be activated up to ~400 Mph on P51’s and P47’s thereby allowing the turn radius to be shortened appreciably.
Ты хорошо играешь. С удовольствием смотрю твои видео
Careful playing chicken with American fighters. I went head to head with an RAF P-47 and his 8 .50 cals turned my Ki-84 into metal confetti!

Wow! The P-51 looks so different in RAF colours
Looks really weird, doesn't it?
The colors and the old cockpit really do make it look like a different bird
That's because it's a Mustang Mark III - not a P-51B.

Sad, that. Well fought.
Thanks Taff, you fought the good fight.
Should of used the silk lol
Great video, though you got a bit greedy at the end there! Would really like to see some more careers or campaigns in the future! They might help you work on your survival skill and bailing practices a bit 🤣
had to be a hero lol , just jump or put it down right away 😲 good try though
It'll buff out.
Cheers Taff
Not enough height to bail out!
Had plenty of time and power to bail. Too bad he was too busy trying to regain control and/or coming up with ways to put it on the ground
Belly landing a Mustang with that huge air scoop??
Valiant Ending. 👍
you might want to edit it to Tilburg
That’s gonna leave a mark!
13 british and commonwealth pilots became aces flying the p 51 and another 27 aces got addition kills to there tallies
Don't worry, that'll buff out.
Not again……..just bail out!!!!
The early Mustang birdcage looks probably worse than the pre-erla Bf 109's.
Between this and The Mighty Eighth this has been a bad week for you and aircraft.
Watched and 👍 Liked
Rip Taff
Tilburg, not Tilberg
You've got a hole in your right wing.
Just bail
Luke Landing :)
K.I.A.

I keep asking but please stop cutting off the debrief at the end of the mission. We want to see the kill credits.
You could for a change fly for once against human pilots instead of these AI drones.
Given that an AI drone was enough to shoot him down, I don't think Taff will be flying online anytime soon!
Play that episode in godmode.
