Tom, I can't believe that you would take my idea!Tongue [:P]Wink [;)] Seriously, I saw this and, since I had bought an 1/48 Arii Thunderbolt to put the FAM decals on, figured what the heck!! LOL Twisted great minds think alike, I guess!Big Smile [:D] Maybe I could do something else, like a Phillipines Air Force P-47 or something like that!Cool [8D]

Cool Joshua... thanks! I will try to fit this in.. if nothing else I will post a 'non-participating' pic of the finished build because it looks different to see it in other nations markings... I'll post some info on the 201st squadron later too... interesting read, almost like the Tuskegee airmen of the P-47's

Any nationality P-47? I am planning on building a 201st squadron (Mexican Squadron that flew with the US in the Pacific in WWII) P-47 down the road a bit and wouldn't mind participating if time permits. If it doesn't I might just buy another one just for this GB. (I am building it for a local elementary library so might start it earlier, but could do another one for another school near here and it would fit in the GB time limits)
