P51 Mustang Series
P51C � Princess Elizabeth - �Symphony in Blue�
The 352nd Fighter Group was based at Bodney, Norfolk, from July 1943 and becoming operational in September of that year. By April 1944 the unit was re-equipped with P51s and went to achieve a remarkable degree of success - becoming known as the legendary �Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney�. The Normandy landings saw an all-out effort to support the invasion and the 352nd flew 9 missions on D-day up to D+2. The image shows a P51C revelling in the clear high altitude air on the way back to base after another WW2 sortie.

Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight
