Regarding the Mustang-in the book ‘Mustang at war’ it states that the aircraft was named after the popular song of the time ‘saddle your blues on a wild mustang and chase all your troubles away’-and i realise that book isn’t the definitive work on the subject, but thought the info might be of interest (cue hundreds of replies explaining why thats not possible!!)
This is quite wierd-was watching a programme just this morning about cruise missiles, and there was an interview with him in which he was talking about tipping up V-1s-never heard of him before-R.I.P, Tip ’em up Terry!
