Griffon-Powered MustangsA. Kevin Grantham and Nicholas A. Veronico $16.95
The first volume in the Raceplane Tech Series examines the Griffon-Powered Mustangs in great detail. The book begins with an examination of the powerful Griffon V-12 engine and includes cut-away drawings and factory photos. The career of the three P-51Ds that have been mated with the Griffon are detailed with pilot and crew interviews. Those aircraft include the "Red Baron," the Whittington Brothers' "World Jet," and the Levitz/Rogers racer "Miss Ashley II." Unique line drawings and detail photographs put the aviation enthusiast, historian, air racing fan, or modeler up close with each aircraft. Pacific Flyer Aviation Newspaper (February 2001) says: "Heavily illustrated, 'Griffon-Powered Mustangs' is a must for any Unlimited air race fan.
