jimw 8905040992 Not sure what I was thinking. This upper level "cruise" setting is at maximum 
possible speed of the aircraft with max prop rpm setting.  Not a "real" cruise
configuration.  Setting prop pitch to max (1.0)

YASim aerodynamic model for a P-51D mustang
Started 2003-04-24 by Jim Wilson
This aerodynamic model is based on three-views, unauthoritative
performance data, and wild guesses. These sites provided particularly
useful information or were simply fun to visit:
Performance data:
http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/SP-468/app-a2.htm
http://www.olympicflightmuseum.com/aircraft_gallery/p51d_mustang.htm
http://www.btinternet.com/~lee_mail/P51.html

Weight and balance:

http://www.nzfpm.co.nz/aircraft/p51d.htm

Three-view:

(Note: I have local copies if this url becomes un-available)
The reference datum for measurements is the nose.
