The canopies on the two aircraft in the foreground look different then
the normal P51-D canopy. They almost look like they are from the
Fw-190 production line. I suppose that would make sense if the
original pilot had to bail out and the canopy was destroyed.


Bail out would mean a crash, doubt the plane would be flyable. My
guess is that the planes crash landed with shot up canopies, or maybe
they flipped over on crash landing.
