Since Dick Phillips is the master of hard-to-solve P-51 Who? cases, it is time to step in and give some hints.

This P-51 is flying today.
This P-51 was flying in WWII ETO with the 357th FG and carried the same paint job years back.
The "N"number a few years back carried the last 5 digits of the serial number.
This P-51 now carries the paint of a 361st FG P-51.

It should be easy now.

Hi Santa,

The deniable Mustang on the picture could be
44-63810, P-51D-20NA, c/n122-31536
With 357thFG during WW2 as Stump Jumper B6*C,
On display for many years, rebuilt to flying condition in 1972, registration was N63810 for some time,
and the aircraft was painted as Stump Jumper.
Now registered N451BC, "Angel's Playmate".

I agree with Marc Koelich - only note of interest is that this a/c also flew with the 167th FS WV ANG (The 'Coonskin Boys') and carried the nickname 'Stump Jumper' (plus a painting of Woody Woodpecker) there, too !

OOPS!

You guys got this one right, but I overlooked it at the last update. Good Work.
