I don't think that's a bomb bay door, it's where the wheel goes. Is that a P51 Mustang? Correct. They are the under carriage doors on a P-51D. There are no bomb bay doors on a P-51. Bombs, rockets and droppable fuel tanks (misnamed "bellytanks" because on earlier planes such as the P-40, they were carried on a centerline hardpoint.), were carried on wing hardpoints. As I explained earlier, there are actually four doors under that plane. The two center doors shown in the image, and the two doors attached to the actual landing gear struts. All four of those doors can be seen in this example of a P-51D. http://db.tt/Mccq0Lrq -- Regards, Savageduck |
