'Lost' 352nd P-51 footage on Pathe news website. Includes Preddy. Is it new footage?
Guys, I was just flicking through this website and typed in Mustang.
The first clip started playing, and there is a P-51C with a pilot talking with ground-crew. The markings on the side are GO, but that's all you see. I think it's unseen footage of 352nd at Bodney?

This following clip is officially identified as original 352nd Guncam footage. Blimey! Can't believe I found it in the thousands of clips!

At 3.39, we see more 352nd P-51's of the 486th (marked PZ) as they buzz their airfield and at 4.20 Preddy in "Cripes A' Mighty 3rd arriving back at base with 6 victories!
Can't believe I found it!
