Frosty,
Blackwolf has a pretty good link on his site titled Little Friends. 8th AF but lots of pics of Mustangs.

Here are some shots I found.
nice Mustang formation. # 7 is 332nd.
B-17 pics here

Another interesting 15th AF site

and some pics of #25 Tuskegee Mustang flying with a B-24 (pics from the B-24)
http://www.450thbg.com/real/miscellaneous/p51-25.shtml
here is a B-17 from the 99th BG called 2nd Patches.
Corgi makes a diecast version of this and you can find several shots of the model online.
Possible candidate for your Fort.

how about some pics e mustang in the foreground ? becuase frosty has the mustang in the foreground for her forced perspective diorama.
Hmmm… looks like my work is done… [;)]
Believe it or don’t, good shots like that aren’t all that easy to find. I know I’ve got some photos like this somewhere, the shot of ‘2nd Patches’ with the two checkertails being one of them. But I don’t think I have anything like what frosty may want. Will keep looking though…
Fade to Black…
