Auto Credit Based on RamboJutter's 12th October 2021 not an MB5 10.4
Introduction
So i recently saw someone else convert a P-51 to a jet, novel idea, so what could I convert to a jet from my catalogue of builds... MB5, why not!
Utilising my original MB5 build I proceeded to change the nose, the rear, actually fixed the dials... and a few other tweaks but the majority is the same as the original build.
Faster than the original it still functions like an early jet with a decently long takoff run etc. Trim is a necesity now for different speeds as the thrust lines have changed from the original.
Controls
AG1 turns on/off the engine
AG2 lowers arrestor hook (british twin boom design)
AG7 folds the wings
VTOL dn for flaps
Pictures
Oh yeah, the twin boom arrestor hook looks the part but only one hook catches.... thanks SP.

Nice transaction into a jet, by the way, that "someone" who did the P51 conversion is me
@asteroidbook345 Im glad someone else thought so, it is an MB5 in nature but once it turned into a jet it definately resembles a thin Attacker =)
Gives me Attacker vibes
Very nice mustang jet 😎
