P-51 Mustang - Shark Mouth

Richard Paver captures a well-known P-51 Mustang in its new and striking colours 

Choosing a colour scheme for a warbird takes lots of consideration. It should evoke the heritage of the subject and turn heads. Shaun Patrick has achieved both with P-51D Mustang N167F, and its debut on the European airshow circuit will be one of this season’s highlights. Ferried to the UK from Sweden on August 31, 2012 the Mustang was initially based at Shoreham. It was overhauled and a lot of work was carried out in order to gain a British Permit to Fly. Meanwhile Shaun set about selecting the colours that the P-51 would wear.
