You might like this Greg, a little faster than a Mosquito and was operational before the war. We could have used them on Dec.7. After watching the video it becomes apparent that after tweaking with settings this plane could have done the long range duty of the P51 over Europe. With turbochargers it has a 44,000 ft. service ceiling which is equal to mustang. and a top speed depending on models from 414 mpg to 435mph.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
