If I read correctly, is that just one P51-B delivered to the Swiss AF in 1944?
And then of course they get lots of P51-Ds in 1947 and the paint scheme is very cool. OK! its at the top of the list for Issue 4... any others?

The P-51B was "delivered" unintentionally in 1944 (emergency landing?) and was interned until the war was over whereupon it was returned to the USAAF. The performance of the aircraft impressed the Swiss (who had tested it while in their custody) and this greatly influenced the decision to acquire surplus USAAF P-51Ds after the war.

They also had at least one interned Me 109, but somebody has that out already.1/50 Me-109E-3 (Emil) by Marek Classics - ECardmodels.com Shop - Downloadable models and crafts for

Test builds of Issue One (P-51C Evalina) and Issue Two (Luftwaffe T9-HK) are underway!
Once I get some completed Photos for the Shop (at ecardmodels.com) the Planes will be available! In the meantime, here we go with Issue No. 3 !!!! I have been preparing this one for a while, and to make it right, I needed to make a few alterations to the base model...and here it is: This "Disruptive Camouflage" P-51A includes: -a complete "Dazzle" repaint, -P-51 "A" fuselage remodeling (lower cowl, belly intake and upper cowl intake) -3 Blade Propellor -20mm Wing Cannons -optional Wheel Well inserts -weathering textures Heres a sample of one of the pages: Because of the fuselage modifications, I have already done two limited test builds...of the main fuselage sections. As a result, I don't need a "test build" for the graphics or artwork alignment. So this plane is ready to go in the Shop now! BUT! I do need some completed build photos for the shop. So...if anyone is interested in a very fast build (less than week?) I will give you the first copy for free! ...in return I need a quick (but proper) build and a set of display photos to use in the ecardmodels shop! For this build, the landing gear is not a necessity...it would be your choice to include that in the build or not. Anyone interested? PM me!

Nice work on the Dazzle! I was wondering what issue that would appear in. :D
I'd offer to build but I'm actually near the top of the running in the DGA comp and I wanna stay on top of it. I'm sure someone will jump on the opportunity for this great model at the perfect price!
