Re: Possible P-51 Wreck discovered in Starnberg/Bavaria
Hello,
If the motor is a Merlin then it cannot be a P47.

I found two possible Post WW2 Mustangs in the AAIR site.

P-51D-20-NA : 1946/09/23, serial number 44-63221 of the 58th FS, 33rd FG. pilot Jan W. Barmore. Place, 10 miles South of Munich.
Could be that the reference to 10 miles is a estimate.
And
P-51D-20-(NA) : 1945/05/08, serial number 44-73177 of the 353rd FS, 354th FG. pilot Donald D. Artz. Place, Munich/R-82.

all the best in your search
Alex
