North American P-51D Mustang – Jersey Jerk – G-JERK

Built under license in Australia by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation, she spent the first years of her existance in storage, before being converted with full dual controls for a passenger in 1997. She spent a couple of decades gracing the Australian skies before being purchased by Ultimate Warbirds in 2020 to join the flight experience fleet. Repainted as Jersey Jerk, 44-15152, the personal aircraft of Major Donald Strait of the 361st Fighter Squadron, she certainly is one of the most stunning looking Mustangs flying on the UK Display curcuit today.
