      Smart One, Ken. You can feel the growl of that radial.

      Great shot - I don't think I've seen one in person (or at least not in recent memory). Love the yellow and red.

      Thanks, y'all! This P-47 is based at the Lone Star Flight Museum in Galveston, Texas. Its definitely an eye catcher!

      Did some avionics work on Air Haiti's C-46's and kind of like the beast, even though she flies like a truck with flat tires and wont hardly trim up for more that 30 seconds.

      No fly-by-wire, eh? I'll remember the "flies like a truck with flat tire" quote. :o)
