A few years ago at a field in Northern California I watched a guy fly a twin
P-51 Mustang. It had two mustang bodies held side by side on a center mid
wing. I never got to talk with him so don't know if it was something he
built custom or a kit. Does anyone have any knowledge of this aircraft? Kit?
Who makes it?

There have been severalkits ove rthe years. One that comes to mind is Dynaflight.
You could also bash two Great Planes kits into a reasonable facsimilie

IIRC, the twin Mustang was a F-82.

It's either a P-82 of F-82; North American made both aircraft. Do a Google Images search for photos and three-views. The Late Col. Art Johnson flew R/C models of both; they flew great.

The World Models P-82 ARF was just reviewed recently in one of the major RC Magazines, but for some reason I can't seem to find it right now. I do remember they had nice things to say about it.

They're the same plane. The only difference is that the plane was called a P-82 before 1947, and an F-82 after 1947. That's when the Air Force became its own separate armed force, and in true bureaucratic style, they redesignated everything...
