P47N Burning Model
« on: August 04, 2005, 07:53:24 PM »
last night my 47N got shot by a 38J and started burning like a roman candel. It kept burning for 5-8 minutes without the plane explodeing or seeming to loose fuel. WEP worked also. I finally had both flaps and alerons shot off and augered. But kept burning the whole time.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Jetb posted a film file of the fight, too. It's in the training forum, worth a look.
