If you had a P51D and wanted to have it painted to represent either a 78th FG or 352nd FG WWII aircraft THAT HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN DONE BEFORE what aircraft might you choose?

I don't have a picture to post , but there's a 78th FG called "Contrary Mary"... It has a little more checkers on the nose than "Big Beautiful Doll" with a checkerboard rudder outlined in red with a yellow canopy frame... Jimmy Hunt used to have his P-51 N5551D in this scheme before it went to the San Deigo Aerospace Museum... Check out s/n 44-73683 over on www.mustangsmustangs.com - it has some pictures of it...

How bout Richard Hewitt's Big Dick?? He's a great guy, and you got to love the nose art!! I built this a while ago and have had the chance to talk with him a few times. He's a great guy.
