Title: Need pics of a jug
Post by: Larry on May 27, 2009, 11:24:08 PM: I was wondering if any of you have any other pictures, profiles, or models of this aircraft.

From littlefriends.co.uk:

Lt. Rupert M Tumlin. 351st Fighter Squadron. P-47D 42-26027 YJ-D_ "Georgie Fay". This a/c was lost on 5 August 1944 with Lt. John J Hatch being KIA.

Post by: Larry on May 27, 2009, 11:40:53 PM: Yeah D11s are full. But seeing that 11 of the 15 slots are occupied by just two people and 5 of the 15 are from 56th FG I think they can make some room.

That top one is impossible. I tried to do it but with the way the image file is bent to match the airframe those diamonds come out looking HORRIBLE.
