Re: Malcolm Hood Installations for P-51B/C

FD473 is listed in Air Britain' serial book as having been the Malcolm Hood trials aircraft, but seeing no other service.
AG618 is recorded as having two spells with the AFDU, sandwiching 1483 (Bombing Gunnery Flt, but went on to serve as a combat aircraft. This suggests it did not have a non-standard canopy - or perhaps it was just retrofitted later?
