My Achin' Back was actually a P-51D, not a P-51B (correct on the KW website)

But that's not the only problem with this decal set. KW state that this aircraft was flown by Lt. Robert Dickmeyer. According to the source that they referenced, though, not only was it flown by Lt. Philo Burney but the serial number was 44-73165. There is no photo of this aircraft on the site.

Needless to say, although I have raised this with KW, they are either very busy or this falls into the 'awkward question, let's hope it goes away' category.

I should point out that it wasn't my intent to find fault with the decal set. I wanted to know what version the aircraft was because the Zoukei-Mura kit offers a tail antennae option for later variants.

I'm going to assume that because this aircraft was NMF it was later war and therefore had the antennae.

According to the American Air Museum in Britain, it was a P-51D-25, which is in keeping with antennae according to the ZM instruction booklet:
