The second offering in a new series entitled Color & Scale covers the RAF's Mustang III (basically a P-51B). As the name implies it offers both plans and profiles under the same cover. Something I noticed is that a fair number of the images are of aircraft in Polish squadrons.

The plans section provides side views of all variants along with upper and lower drawings in 1/72. In 1/48 three variants are shown in side view along with an abbreviated upper and lower view. It is abbreviated as the full plan view is simply too large for the page. These are in half the book. The other half comprises full color profiles of various aircraft of the time in a scale that is a bit larger than 1/48, allowing two profiles per page in a vertical format. There is one full color plan image included. The last page is an explanation of all the profiles in Polish.

In all, it is looking to be an interesting series. You can count on others to come covering the more important WWII types.
