| Very nice! I've avoided that for a while, but have a Vultee Vibrator in line, so I have a good picture tp follow.

| me too. This one is rather involved however and will take some time. The wing construction with working flaps and landing gear should be even more fun than this fuselage and engine / cowling / cockpit adventure has been.. |

| Nicely detailed. Looking forward to seeing final product. |

| She really was built like a tank. Lots of armor plating and duralumin - the copper and aluminum alloy - was used all over the airplane to protect the pilot, super charger and other critical areas. The fuselage work is far enough along that I can begin to work up the R2800 and get the cowling fitted after that. |

| Thanks for mentioning Greg's airplanes. This site has been mentioned before and it is one of my favorites. He does go into hyperdetail, which I love. His information appears to be well researched and he often goes to the source instead of relying on other people's observations. The P-47 series is wonderful! He even has a video on the Throttle and Boost quadrant! Where would you find something like that! But he also has some great videos on things like Super Turbo chargers, Inverted V engines and aircraft performance comparisons. I've not reviewed his car videos, but I suspect they are just as informative. |

| On Youtube I found what I consider an interesting channel called Greg's Airplanes and Automobiles. He has an 8 part P-47 series. They are in some parts so technical I have one idea what he is talking about but everything else is very interesting. This is one of the videos which has some info about Greg.

| I’ll be scratch-building the R2800 engine for this project as well. Lots to do on this project. I might have Callie do the decals for it. Not a fan of Guillow’s decals.. |

| I was going to take on some of the challenges. I want to make the main and tail wheels retractable, the flaps and canopy moveable, the rest of the control surfaces will be fixed. All is subject to change as usual. |

| Great start! Looking forward to seeing what you do with this model. |
| edtherenderman, Comment for image # 42804 | 02 Nov 20 09:29 |
| Looking good! Are you going to build it with all the special Guillow's options? |
