Republic P-47M "Bostwick"

45.5k Sgtk  7.2 years ago

Instructions: Ag2-5 for rockets, Ag6-7 to drop bombs. VTOL for the flaps and Trim Up to stow the landing gear. Recommend 50% Throttle and Flaps for takeoff. Definitely a smooth flier, and one I'm super proud of. I'm really happy with how this one turned out,and I hope you like it too. Thanks to @EpicPigster1 for the shoutout. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvements or planes you'd like to see. As always, thanks for stopping by to look, and enjoy your flight!! The P-47 was one of the main United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) fighters of World War II, and served with Allied air forces including France, Britain, and Russia. Mexican and Brazilian squadrons fighting alongside the U.S. were equipped with the P-47. The "M" variant was Republics response to rocket/jet powered craft in Europe. The one shown here, belonged to Maj. George Bostwick. Bostwick was an ace credited with one kill being the Me. 262.
