Title: Buzzbait's P-47 data and photo
Post by: Widewing on February 08, 2001, 06:22:00 PM

I'm posting this for Buzzbait, his material is on the Worldnet web server:

S! all
 
Here is a page from a USAAF document on a P47-D21.  It details weights and various loadings.  You can see from this the Razorback P-47 is considerably lighter than the later models.

Attached also is this photo of a P-47D.  It's not a Razorback, but I think a Razorback in these colours would look pretty spiffy.  It's a 78th FG Jug.
