Where did the "Killer!" Mustang fly?
ETO or PTO?

I thought "Killer" was not from a real plane.

To Lee R. Frakes and the B-17

I was under the same impression. But If it was and judging by the invasion stripes and the cross "kills" my guess would be ETO

Deffinitely a real plane that fought in the ETO. There is a profile and photo of it on Teamski's profiles site. The BBI version has tweaked some of the ID lettering on the side, as well as the pilot's name, however.

I thought that the name was Killer Ace since there is an Ace card next to it.

Killer is 100% accurate. Here are a couple pictures of it from the Profile Album (of which you can access via the website button below). Bbi's Killer has a small error: the Q is an O for some reason. Easily fixed.

Darnit! Now to get back up in the attic and get my BBI "Killer" P-51 down

It still looks awesome, even with all the rivets!
