The Flying Bulls Austria have acquired yet another warbird! The North American P-51D Mustang (F-AZSB) has joined their impressive collection of warbirds. The P-51D in the colours of “Nooky Booky IV” with code "GA-C" as was flown by Major Leonard “Kit” Carson, top ace of the 357th Fighter Group with 18.5 confirmed victories has been previously flown in France where it displayed at a number of airshows.

The North American Aviation P-51 Mustang is an American long-range, single-seat fighter and fighter-bomber used during World War II and the Korean War, among other conflicts. The Mustang was designed in April 1940 by a design team headed by James Kindelberger of North American Aviation (NAA) in response to a requirement of the British Purchasing Commission. The Purchasing Commission approached North American Aviation to build Curtiss P-40 fighters under license for the Royal Air Force (RAF). Rather than build an old design from another company, North American Aviation proposed the design and production of a more modern fighter. The prototype NA-73X airframe was rolled out on 9 September 1940, 102 days after the contract was signed, and first flew on 26 October
