NAA P-51 Mustang Rudder Pedals

Thu Dec 12, 2024 10:49 am

Been a long time since I've been on this site, but hopefully someone out there has some information. Way back when some friends and I were doing a display restoration on a P-51H at the old Chanute Air Museum, I had to come up with a missing rudder pedal, which I fabricated in fiberglass from a mold of the one original still in the plane. At the time, I seem to recall Mustang rudder pedal designs varied/changed with new versions. Attached is a photo of the molded pedal from our P-51H. Interested to see differences in previous designs.
