Pilots book?

After a few years absence and for my retirement I am back in the hobby and delving this time into the Mustang.... Is there an equivalent book of flying the P-51 as there are RobertJohnson's P-47 book and Jeffrey Quills Spitfire books?
Many thanks already for all your your inputs!!

W.E. power before landing?

Why in some flight operating instructions handbooks is it recommended to use military power for a short period just prior to landing? Whats the mechanical reason for it? (Hand book flight operating instructions USAF models P-51D and P-51K series of 6nov 1945 revised 17 dec 1947, page 23) Many thanks...

Mixture lever positon at take-off?

Should the mixture at take off be in the run position as recommended in the civilian A2A manual page 80 or in the rich position as recommended by Kermie in his video of the cockpit tour (At 19min 50 sec)?
Thanks in advance for your inputs!

Re: OK, Ive gotta ask...

Hm...most likely a ridiculous question...what's the meaning of "operation sealion"? I googled it but do not see the relation with nazi's germany codename? Being swiss french speaking culturally may explain my ignorance!!! Many thanks in advance for your help!!

Re: Cockpit choice?

Oh sorry! I am confused! Up to now I thought repaints are related to the outside...will go hunting for the worn out interiors, also especially vintage cockpits of the P-47! If someone knows one....

Cockpit choice?

Was just wondering why all texan cockpits are unused looking, brand new? I find a worn out cockpit, especially for warbirds, is more immersive than a new looking one?!

Battery and inverted flight?

Why does the battery have to be isolated from the electrical system during inverted flight?
