Title: P-47 Flying Video
Post by: Steve Dwyer on May 11, 2018, 05:33:49 AM

Sparky or Anybody,

The subject of building and a flying P-47 Thunderbolt control line model came up and I brought up your project Sparky. I believe you at one point posted a video of it flying, can you or anyone direct me to it.

Thanks,

Steve

This is slightly off topic, because it is about real P-47s rather than model P-47s. I felt I had to share it. This video is the very best interview I have ever seen about a WW2 pilot. Charles Mohrle passed in 2013. The interview was conducted a number of years before his death. Please enjoy-
