I have been browsing my little mustang book (Combat legends P-51 Mustang by Airlife) and I saw a pic of a post-WWII Filipino Mustang. It turns out, the Philippines was one of the largest operators of this bird. I am really interested in modelling this scheme as find the winged diamond “roundel” interesting and I am Filipino. Are there any decals for planes in this service in 1/48?
When the Hawk 1/48th P-51D came out in it’s original chrome-pated version back in the early 1960’s, the decal sheet included Phillipine markings. I built one using those markings and it was very colorful. Haven’t looked at the Hawk/Testors P-51 in a while, so don’t know what markings come with it now.

Hey markuz226,
I have seen Philippine markings for other a/c so if worse comes to worse you could always use them.
I think AeroMaster and Super Scale made them. Which a/c that I’m not sure of. I’ll look[:D] I want to say P-47s for some reason.
Flaps up,MIke
