apparently the A/C dumped fuel prior ro landing according to the press. Pilot must have crawled out onto wings to open the fuel caps, clever boy, right up to the point where he landed on the grass, mistake! Oh well life risks where minimal, that's all that counts. There are more P51's on the planet than pretty much any other WW2 fighter craft, no real loss, life important, metal not.
