47D or 38L ? you need both NOW

"But P-47M? we need Ta-152 or late Dora to come up with that, do you realise that its faster than stang?"

Yes. I personally would not want to see a P47-M without the TA-152 or Dora released at the same time. Although it would be fun to run down Mustangs at 25K being the M and N were ~40+mph faster

Westy said it.  

Okay, I admit it.  I'm a Jug-dweeb.  

Westy, when the heck do you fly?  We're gonna HAVE to get together on this

 Whenever the little guy goes to sleep early and the wife doesn't have any plans for us.  A few times a week usually. When the good weather comes usually even less - I live up by Boston , Ma.  I've got a montrous 'honey do' list on a fixer upper of a house.

 But I've been starting to look folks up on the roster when I do log on. Some to fly with some to try and fly against. I'll be sure to look for Rebel and catch up with you. Even more so when the Jug does appear!

Hell yes!  

The only thing more dangerous the one P-47M is two winging together  

Look forward to it buddy

Right here Gorf,
 http://home.att.net/~C.C.Jordan/index.html

 There is a series called the "Cradle of Liberty" which gives the history of Republic with the P-47 having a predominant part of the story.
 Further down the list of articles is one specifically on the P-47 M.

 CC Jordans' site is my favorite on the web.
 I wish he could get some good input or collaboration from other historical writers of different nationalities.
