jimw 97c2e8f59a More adjustments for addition power: 
Corrected empty + pilot aircraft mass to 7190.
Upped "cruise speed" to maximum operational speed of 380 knots.
Reduced prop pitch at cruise to 0.8 (3000 rpm is only for takeoff).
Changed camber to 0.01 (found reference that said 1%)
Decreased tail surface effectiveness slightly just to get better numbers.
Changed turbo-mult to 2.5 and wastegate-mp to 30

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
http://www.sprucegoose.org/pdfs/planes/P51Mustang.pdf
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.
