Ok, maybe you're drunk or something because you didn't get that sentence.
I ment why don't you pick some thread started by me or ammo or someone else from 56thFG and fool around there, that way your revenge would be better aimed.

Vector I didn't start that 109K thread so what's the difference? In both cases a "third-party" interferes to the discussion and hijacks it.

I'm just larning from you guys (Ammo and you) and I belive after little practising I will be good at this :)

Cya later ! :)

Hi Makofan,

The three jugs can really be flown in the exact same manner for effective results. The differences are not so different.

however, the D11 is the fastest at all playable altitudes, but also has the pooorest rate of climb.

The D25 has a bit better climb than the D11, and a much more capable Air to Ground loadout, however the rocket tubes are not jetisonable and they create drag that you dont want.

The d30 has the most power of the 3 and will climb at 3200 FPM at sea level clean. It also has an even more impressive air to ground loadout. Also this jug has the option for the larger drop tanks.

Please ignore staga, he is just wanting to get at me. I apologize.

.....are pretty much the Jug experts in AH.  Tac is good in one too, as is Drex.
Here is the Jug we REALLY want though:

Max speed: 470-480 mph @ 28,500 ft. Climb, at max. gross weight (including three 75 gallon drop tanks): 4.9 minutes to 15,000 feet at 2,600 rpm (1700 hp). Reportedly, the "M" could reach 20,000 feet in 5.7 minutes at military power (2,100 hp @ 2,800 rpm). 20,000 feet in 4.75 minutes in WEP (2,800 hp @ 2,800 rpm). This is with full internal fuel and ammo. No external stores or drop tanks. In other words, normal load, clean configuration.



Repeat after me........P47M, P47M, P47M!!!!!!!!  :D

Man, sometimes I wonder why on earth I moved up here.....nothing comes simple here, takes weeks to get ANYTHING in when ya order it, then IF you get it, it's probably gonna be the wrong item and not what you ordered.
I tried three times to order reference books from the local stores.  Each time I got told (after almost two weeks of waiting) that the books were "unavailable at this time".

good to see you too mako.  Now that you are here, you may as well enjoy it:) If ya see us in the MA or CT then by all means tag along. We are gonna make a country change here in a day or two, looks like we will be bishops.

Welcome aboard. If you get to where you have a fondness of the P-47, then by all means look at our squad for membership. We have a great bunch of guys that have alot of fun flying together.


Eddie, I just let Amazon find Warren Bodie's book for me. They will search for several months until they fiund it or not. I got lucky:)

Staga,
Learn faster and buy a dictionary.  Your the first person I've seen spell worse than HT!


Makofan
I bought my P47 Flight manual back in 1997 when I was flying Air Warrior.

I love the -25 in AH.  What a great zoomer!
I've often found myself on the deck running wide circle banks and high speed Yo-Yo type manuvers.
The amazing thing about this bird is that you can turn it around rather quick when the speed is high.
What that means is that an enemy might saddle up on you, then turn off because you are going too fast for them to catch you.  Then you reverse on a high Yo-Yo and shoot him in the six.

It also makes a great vulcher! :D

Not taking any sides on the issue itself but Sky Viper you might want to keep in mind that not everyone here speaks english as their native language. And FWIW, jumping on every typo (they were typos, nothing more...his grammar better than some native english speakers' on this BBS) you see is pretty silly. I bet that Staga's english is way better than your finnish...

Hehe, there's nothing wrong with staga's english, but I must admit that there were several "little" typos in his numerous posts. But I quess that was because he was in hurry to post that P-47M image to every thread in this BBS.. or was it P-47D-23 image..? Can't recall.

staga, no hard feelings :)
