Background:

The only difference between the North American P-51B and C variants was the B was built in Inglewood and the C in Dallas. The B variant first flew on May 5, 1943 and the C variant first flew on August 5, 1943. The B variant saw 1,988 built while the C variant saw 1,750 built. On December 1, 1943 the P-51B Mustang flew its first combat mission and in March 1944 provided bomber escort to Berlin. The high shape of the P-51B/C dorsal spine gave it the name “Razorback”.


P-51C 43-25147 c/n 103-26778 was constructed in 1943 and was flown by Lt. William Wisner of the 352nd FG/487th FS. On June 6, 1944, D-Day Wisner‘s P-51 “Queen Elizabeth” was hit by flak and crash landed. Wisner evaded capture and was saved by Canadian forces. Wisner had a total of 15.5 victories. Later, parts of the aircraft along with some Israeli P-51 parts the aircraft was restored and eventually ended up as “Princess Elizabeth” again and in 2007 joined “The Gathering of Mustangs & Legends”.
