On that point I cannot disagree with you. I read a quote that if a pilot wanted to impress the girls he'd say he flew Mustangs. If he wanted to survive a dogfight he'd fly P-47's. The Mustang has to be the absolute hands down most beautiful piston engined fighter invented, but if I was flying back then I think I'd like that big reliable air-cooled radial engine in front of me.
