FlyPast  |  September 2016
The September issue of FlyPast features a special section dedicated to a legend of US military aviation, the North American P-51D Mustang. We present several features including exclusive artwork detailing the many different variants of Mustang, and we also take a look at a few of those still flying. Our cover star is Hangar 11’s North Weald-based example, which has recently received a new ‘Red Tails’ colour scheme.
FIREFLY SPOTLIGHT
Our in-depth Spotlight section focuses on the Fairey Firefly, a carrier-based attack aircraft that served the Royal Navy’s Fleet Air Arm well during World War Two and beyond. We include exclusive artwork, rarely seen images and pilot memories.
FLYING LEGENDS
Darren Harbar captures some highlights from July’s two-day warbird spectacular at Duxford.
BUCCANEER DAYS
Former Buccaneer pilot Tom Eeles reflects on his days flying the big jet.
GERMAN RESTORATIONS
Editor Chris Gilson takes a trip to the museum at Gatow in Germany, where a number of exciting restoration projects are under way.
AUSTER FLIGHT
Auster enthusiast Peter Gill describes the return to the skies of a war veteran AOP.9.
We also detail the incredible wartime career of a German floatplane – the Arado Ar 196 – that had a reputation as a flying boat killer, and describe the meticulous restoration of an unheralded British classic, the Percival Q6, plus we bring you all the latest aviation heritage news. Don’t miss this bumper, 132-page issue.
