Did you test the P-51D drop tanks to make sure these work OK?  The unusual 
thing it does is to prevent the drop tank contents from being non-zero unless 
the tank is currently in place.  This is to prevent the pilot from using the 
Equipment --> Fuel and Payload menu to put fuel into a non-existant drop tank.  
This should be tested just to make sure it is still working.
