Download or read book Mustang Designer written by Ray Wagner and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mustang Designer tells the story of American wartime fighter development, including engines and armaments, as part of a nationwide program of aircraft builders and fliers, focusing on Edgar Schmued, the designer of the Mustang. The P-51 Mustang is widely regarded as the best propeller-driven fighter that ever flew. What many might not realize is that the plane's developer was a German migrant. This book tells of how Schmued created a weapon that would ultimately prove lethal to the aspirations of those who had seized control over his native land.
Download or read book F 82 Twin Mustang Pilot s Flight Operating Instructions written by United States Air Force and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The F-82 ¿Twin Mustang¿ was conceived during WWII as a long-range fighter escort. Like the P-51, it was designed by North American's brilliant engineer, Edgar Schmued. The F-82 utilized two extended P-51 fuselages, mounted to a newly- designed center wing and tail. The plane incorporated new propeller assemblies and a unique, four-wheel landing gear. In short, while the plane would be cosmetically similar to the Mustang, in reality it was an entirely new beast. The F-82 wasn¿t ready before WWII ended, but the program escaped cancellation, and planes entered operational service in 1948. The F-82 became the last piston- powered fighter ordered by the USAF. It flew as an escort for SAC B-29s, and with distinction as a night fighter in Korea. It was retired in 1953. Originally printed by the USAF and North American, this pilot¿s handbook provides a glimpse inside the cockpit of this warbird. Originally classified ¿Restricted¿, the manual was de-classified and is here reprinted in book form.

It was formed in 1941 as successor to the previous United States Army Air Corps, and was the direct predecessor of the United States Air Force, one of the six armed forces of the United States today. Various departments of the USAAF produced instructional handbooks, manuals and pamphlets such as 'Air Force Manuals' and 'Technical Orders', they were noteworthy for their level of detail, clarity and colourful graphic illustrations. The Army Air Forces School of Applied Tactics who produced FIGHTER PILOT GUNNERY was based at Orlando Army Air Base, Florida.
Download or read book Me 262 vs P 51 Mustang written by Robert Forsyth and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-26 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arguably two of the finest fighters built during the course of World War II, the Me 262 and P-51 Mustang heralded new dawns in aircraft performance. Making its operational debut in the summer of 1944, and powered by the Jumo 004 jet engine, the Me 262 outclassed Allied planes in terms of speed and firepower ratio, offering a formidable punch with four 30 mm MK 108 nose-mounted cannons. However, in the P-51, fitted with the Rolls-Royce (Packard) Merlin engine and drop tanks, the USAAF finally had a fighter that had the 'legs' to escort its heavy bombers deep into Reich airspace and back. If flown to its strengths, the P-51 was more than capable of taking on the feared Me 262 on an equal footing, despite the differences in power and top speed. Indeed, the Mustang proved to be the Luftwaffe fighter arm's nemesis. When the P-51D sortied over Germany from the summer of 1944 onwards, it shredded through the ill-trained and depleted Gruppen of the Luftwaffe's defence wings. This book examines the two fighters in detail, exploring their history and development and containing accurate descriptions of the combats between the P-51 Mustang and the Me 262 in what were some of the most bitter and large-scale aerial actions fought over Europe in 1944–45.
