Re: Late war NMF 65 sqn Mustang operations over Norway?
In Sperbund's book (Brennpunkt "Westküste") it is mentioned that both 19. and 65. Sqd. had converted to Mustang Mk IVs which were called Silver Mustangs or Silver Birds for obvious reasons. This was in late March 1945. There is one ophoto there of YT-Q KM148 (flown by Johnny W. Foster). I also have a couple of photos of QV-F KH818 (unknown date) which is also "silver".
So silver Mustangs were obviously used over Norway in the last few months of the war. Regards, Kjetil |
