Title: Here ya go Greebo
Post by: Guppy35 on August 10, 2011, 03:45:04 AM

Nice NMF Jug,  D-23 I think but it sure would look nice.  78th FS, 15th FG in the PTO.

That's a sweet scheme.

Its a really nice scheme. The only thing that puts me off it is that the 15th FG never saw combat with the Thunderbolt. Although they saw some combat with the P-40, they were defending Hawaii when they got P-47Ds and had switched to the P-51D by the time they were moved forward to Saipan. While I don't agree with Krusty's assertion that an aircraft had to have seen combat to be permitted as a skin, I would rather do a combat skin given a choice.
