Honey Child
« on: September 21, 2014, 07:29:04 AM »
Thanks to Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

Honey Child was a P-47N of the 507th Fighter Group, 465th Fighter Squadron based on Ie Shima island airfield just off the coast of Okinawa. For the last six weeks of the war this group flew escort, fighter sweeps and ground attack missions over the Japanese mainland, shooting down 38 enemy aircraft and destroying numerous ground targets.

Nice! How soon will this get in game?
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I'll submit this in a few days and Skuzzy usually updates the new skins at the beginning of each tour. So ironically it should be in the game in about two weeks.  :D

What most of you guys don't realize is just how little Greebo had to work with to get this amazing skin done.
Fantastic job Greebo. :rock

This could see some use in the Octobers FSO :)
