Entrepreneur, aircraft collector and pilot, Hannu Halminen, had a Swedish airforce P-51D restored into the livery of RCAF 424 City of Hamilton Squadron, BA-S.
Registered as NL951HB, this former USAAF P-51D-25-NA passed through many owners from 1945 including, Swedish, Bolivian and Nicaraguan airforces before being repatriated to the U.S. in 1994. After a brief storage period, this Mustang began a long restoration in 2002 at Glenn Wegman’s Fighter Enterprises, Inc. of Florida, USA.
In 2020, Hanuu presented the ' jewel of his aircraft collection ' making it's first post-restoration flight on September 26 near Oshawa, Ontario. He has flown BAS to Hamilton many times to visit the Warplane Heritage Museum at CYHM, the former 424 RCAF Sqn base where, the original BA coded mustangs operated. It's always a thrill for the warplane buffs when Hannu comes around. There is always a good story to tell, and we love looking at the marvelous craftmanship that went into his Mustang's restoration.
You must have Aeroplane Heaven's P-51D for MSFS installed to use this livery
Unzip, drop into your Community folder, or where you keep your addons for MSFS

I think your skins would have more success if they were made also for Asobo's P51 that comes with the cheapest Reno pack. Unless you want them exclusively for Aeroplanes Heaven version for some reason. But most people have the P51 from Asobo that comes at 9$ separately or under 5$ with te pack.

I'm not looking for success, I just like sharing, honouring our aviation history, paying tribute to the RCAF veterans in my family, making art. I've been a supporter of Aeroplane Heaven for many years throughout different versions of Microsoft Flight Simulator. They have a winner with this P-51D in my opinion, and I found the texture sheets logical compared to ASOBO's scrambled textures. It's impossible to tell what part is what unfortunately, I do agree the RCAF colours would look great on the Reno Mustang.
