[edit]Shouldnt this list show planes that were historically surviving, including The Galloping Ghost airplane, otherwise this list will eventually have no content.(mercurywoodrose)75.61.134.173 (talk) 04:37, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- No. Look up 'surviving' in a dictionary. AndyTheGrump (talk) 04:52, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- I think this article should be renamed "list of vintage North American P-51 Mustangs", with sections on currently extant, and no longer extant, planes. Only planes which lasted past 25 years from their date of manufacture would then be included. (mercurywoodrose)Mercurywoodrose (talk) 17:43, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- I just did some research, and the phrase "surviving aircraft" is common usage. so the name change idea is not going to fly, but i think having a section for planes like Galloping makes sense.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 17:52, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
- I just want to reiterate: while it makes perfect sense to have a list of surviving planes, if all of them were destroyed tomorrow, this article, by current article inclusion criteria, would have to be deleted, despite the plane having a long history of individual examples being preserved and restored. is this information ONLY valid as long as the planes are viable RIGHT NOW? thats not very encyclopedic. there should be a place in WP for noteworthy examples of vintage aircraft that survive long after their production/support cycle, but then are lost or destroyed. Im just asking editors to think outside the box here. if all we record is lists of currently surviving planes, thats more like a fan site. hell, even a fan site would mention planes like the galloping ghost in the context of other surviving planes. and, i did look up surviving in the dictionary, and it means just what i thought it did, which is beside the point.(mercurywoodrose) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.80.6.163 (talk) 00:14, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

My addition got yanked
[edit]I added an entry for this plane: http://www.mustangsmustangs.com/p-51/survivors/P-51D_5?survivors/serial/44-84390. It got yanked from the list. Any reason? Thanks. Hermanoere (talk) 20:40, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
- Hello Hermanoere! Welcome to the North American P-51 Mustangs survivor's page! I removed 44-84390 because the FAA certificate for it expired, meaning that it no longer is flying. The cite you give above is from 2006. The certificate expired 12/31/2013. http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNum_Results.aspx?NNumbertxt=N2869D. All of the entries in the Airworthy section have FAA certificates that are valid. Can you find another source after 12/31/2013 that shows that the owners are maybe displaying it? Maybe then we can add it to the Display section.Redjacket3827 (talk) 22:43, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

44-73159
[edit]I've received an e-mail third hand asking for an edit to be made to this list. The request is for 44-73159 to be housed under a "Turkey" heading, with information that it has been sold to Turkey. The source for this is www.mustangsmustangs.net and the requestor is an editor in Turkey, who cannot access Wikipeda to edit it due to the Turkish Government's block of Wikipedia. Is the source reliable enough to use? I would expect this sale to be covered by Aeroplane magazine in any case, next issue is out on 11 January. Mjroots (talk) 16:52, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
- Not covered in the February 2018 issue. Hopefully it'll be in the March one. Mjroots (talk) 14:50, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
- It was covered, and the list has been updated. Mjroots (talk) 11:27, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
45-11525 Val Halla – based at Heritage Flight Museum in Eastsound, Washington.[223][224]
[edit]This aircraft is owned by Astronaut William Anders who lived for a while on Orcas Island. He now lives in Anacortes, Washington and the plane is on loan to the same Heritage Flight Museum located in Skagit County, Wa. It routinely flies. www.heritageflight.org2601:601:4580:A050:0:0:0:673F (talk) 23:57, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
