I got the P-47 back in 2008, that's why you can't purchase it anymore sadly.
 
Was able to talk with the owner of Aeroplane Heaven and he is helping me with the P-47 series package. Do have one of them now. Regards,Scott

Did manage to get one of the AH P-47's. A P-47D Bubble Top Canopy version. Nice model for when it came out and a nice cockpit also. The quest continues...

Thanks Mick. nice seeing the Defiant getting a bit of use, btw don't forget to lower the fairings for combat!:encouragement:
 
Thanks Bravo/4, yep the bomb bay toggle for the fairing.

Mastering a workable attack profile isn't easy but it very rewarding when you hear those 4 303s open up.
Ive found that a dive down to the left or right side on a parallel course to your target then when you are alongside pull up while rolling into the target gets the best results, its just a matter of imagining the arc of the turret guns.

Haven't really got a good photo of the maneuver yet with the target in the shot but.....
