Our P-51 Mustang served with the 353rd Fighter Group during World War II. Nicknamed the “Slybird Group,” the unit used a bold nose scheme of black and yellow stripes with three rows of checkerboard pattern. When pilots struggled to identify friendly aircraft in combat, five more rows of checkerboard were added, making the Mustangs easier to spot during dogfights. #FHCAM #WWII #WWIIHistory #History #USAirForce #Warbirds | Flying Heritage & Combat Armor Museum
