Have a request to do the Mustang in the usual 40-46 size. testing the waters to find out how much interest there would be in this one. Drawings would include such variations as: The razor back "C", "C" with Malcomb hood, "C" with the dorsal fin and the "D" with or without the dorsal fin, etc. Need enough want um's to justify the drafting effort.

How about an "H"???

Don, Pat Johnston already had a 565 sq in P51D. Is there enough demand for the other marks?
Cheers, Geoff
-
Exactly what I am trying to find out.

Count me in on the B model Don. I've yet to see a profile Mustang done with a proper scale outline, gotta get it just right though. y1
-
I'd prefer a P-47, great fighter, no profile versions published or kitted to my knowledge, different versions available, nice semi-elliptical wing platform, and lotsa color schemes to choose from. Oh, and for biplanes, still hoping for a Curtis P-6 E, even though it is pre-WWII. 8)

The requester actually asked for both the Mustang and the Jug. Once again, I need enought interest to make it worth my time to create another masterpiece so who else is interested in which airplane??
Don

The Jug! Now that would be really cool! I'd be up for the Mustang as well. Make mine a P-51B please!

P51H and Razorback P 47!!! #^

A nice profile Jug for LA46 would be sweet. Love them warbirds!

Ok, both of 'em. ;D B model Mustang and Razorback Jug for me please. H^^ The Mustang would be my first choice though. y1
-
I too would go for the P-47, especially with the drop tank. Watching videos of that plane taking off made me wonder how many times they drug the under sides. Had a teacher that flew them. Would not talk about his experiences much other than they always got him back. He did let it slip that the third one was shot up so bad it never flew again. Have fun, DOC Holliday

Don,
You can put me on the list for the Razorback Jug. Though, I'll buy anything that you draw. Your plans are absolute works of art!

No doubt the Mustang would be great, but I am waiting for a Grumman Guardian to be done. You almost had me with the Skyraider, and I haven't ruled that out yet, but a Guardian, I would be for that!!!!
-
p47 would be awsome.

Ty-
I thought it was a "D" that did the carrier quals. Did they ever try a Jug? I think I have seen clips of the Jug being delivered from carriers but not landing. Clue me in, thanks.
From preliminary poll results, appears the Jug will be first, several iterations will be on the drawings.

Don,
If you do the P-47 in various versions it would be WAY cool to also include a profile of the Razorback one with the long pointy nose and P-40 style scoop. I can't remember for sure, but I think it was actually designated "XP-47" and they only built one. The nose profile was a lot like the P-40, but with the leading edge of the scoop angled rearward a bit and set back further from the spinner. I think it might have been a 4360 mounted up front if I remember correctly. Anyway, it's a P-47 version I've contemplated doing many times myself, it's got a really mean looking profile to it and would be a very cool model. Ahh the possibilites... ;D :##
-
The later "N" model that was made for the pacific theatre would be a good option as it has squared off wing tips. Higher roll rate for the full scale, easier to access a line slider for us. 8)
-
Don, I'll take one of each. I also favor the B model P-51. The Jug is too seldom seen and would be great to have. Still want a Fiat G-55 or a M/C 2002/2006

I have pictures of P-47's launching off Carriers but have not ever seen or heard of then landing on such.
-
YES!, a P-51C with birdcage canopy. The "D" model has been done to death, uness it's Race 38 - "Precious Metal"...
A F-94C Starfire would be a nice candidate. The rocket filled nose cone is shaped just like a spinner.
-
Some inspiration...Lockheed F94-C Starfire
-
Don, I can't keep up with all your warbirds...but count me in for a P-47! Thanks!

Platypus plan modifies v nicely into a p-47. narrower tip rib and profile to stock datums.
-
I’m a Airacobra freak. A X-39, this is my latest project it is from a modified P-40 kit.

Here is a picture of a earlier one from a Brodak Zero War Bird kit.

You know, Mustangs are like Butt-Holes. Everybody has one. If a kit is needed there are two subjects that are lacking in the field.
The Heinkle HE 100D and the Bell P-63A would be something different and worthy of some time.
If you make a Mustang kit, well just maybe I could do it like I did that big Midwest RC Mustang, which I bashed into an RC HE 100D.

I will keep hoping for the Guardian.
-
No problem, get some good three views of the Guardian, then take my Skyraider drawings and a red pencil and morph it into a Guardian. There is nothing magic about my plans, should be an easy task. In reality, all the warbirds are the same basic airplane, they just have different outlines. The nature of the mission and the available power plants during WWII resulted in two basic machines, those with in-line engines and those with radial engines. Ergo, the warbirds should all fly about the same too. I have only seen two examples and they are both very good flyers.

Looks like it will be the P-47 first and then the P-51. Will keep ya'll posted on progress, none this week as it is NASCAR race weekend in Texas. Plus my good source references won't be here til next week.Don
-
I bet the Curtiss P-36/Model 75 would be a popular model...but easier to kit bash a PSJ P-40. Good lookin' plane...pretty much a P-40 with a round engine... y1 Steve

Had I been two clicks smarter, I would have shown the P-36 nose option on the P-40 plans I did some time ago.
The P-47 I am now working up will have 4 different options for the "Jug". And if someone wants something other than these, a tad of research will allow yet more options. One of the photos in my source documents is a P-47 I actually did some work on when I was in A&E school for the USAF. According to the mag article, it now resides at the USAF museum in Dayton, Oh.
