Date: August 24, 2019
Location: Ede, Netherlands
Event: Wings of Freedom Airshow Ede
Aircraft: USAAF North American P51D Mustang 'Damn Yankee'
Reg.number: OCG (PHPSI)
Owner: Tom van der Meulen, Oostwold Airport, Netherlands.

☆ This P51D Mustang has the powerful RR 16509 engine and was manufactured on May 23, 1945, just after the Second World War ended in Europe on May 9, 1945.

The 'Damn Yankee' therefore did not participate in WWII, which provides the advantage that this Mustang is almost complete original.
The 'Damn Yankee' served for the USAAF til 1950, when it flew for the RCAF until 1958.
From 1958 she had several owners and even participated in the Reno Air Race in 1992.

Tom van der Meulen from The Netherlands finally became the new owner, when he bought the 'Damn Yankee' in 1993 under registration N11T. In 2005 the 'Damn Yankee' finally received its Dutch registration 'PHPSI' ( PHP51).

Every year the beautiful warbird is used for memorial flights at commemorations and demos at airshows all over Europe, keeping the memory alive of all the brave WWII airmen.

The PHPSI is painted in the colors of the 359th Fighter Squadron and 356th Fighter Group, stationed at Martlesham Heath Airfield in England.

In 1943, Martlesham Heath became one of a group of grasssurfaced airfields earmarked for use by fighters of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) 8th Air Force.
The airfield was assigned USAAF designation Station 369.

The call sign OCG is from Lt. Col. Donald A Baccus, A USAAF Ace Pilot from WWII who flew the Mustang and the Thunderbolt.
