| The P-47D model had almost the same speed as the P-51 but it flew 100 feet higher up to 42,000 feet Only the P-38 flew higher to 44,000 feet but the P-38 only flew 414 mph. Methinks I would rather be flying the P-38 then the P-51 or P-47D | |

Country: | me too, i like the P-38, id be willing to fly 20mph slower for an extra 2000ft altitude, and not many planes of the time could go up to 44,000ft, the only ones i can think of at the moment are the westland welkin (44,000ft), focke-wulf ta-152 (48,560ft) and the gotha go229, which was a kind of early stealth bomber wich could go over 50,000ft

| The Mosquito NF.Mk.XV made it to 44,600ft , a version made from the B.Mk.IV in 1943 to counter Ju.86P's - As for the Mustang, it was and still is a superb aircraft, it's range and speed contributed largely to the success of the Day-bombing Offensive. I think the laminar-flow wing design and the Merlin in them combined with 6 X .50's, made it the success it was - It also excelled earlier in the War in the RAF's PR Sqn.'s in the earlier variants. | |
