p-47s

I'm in Oregon and retired or maybe just plain tired. :) Enjoy Aces High quite a bit. Father flew with the 325th/319th Checkertails during WWII in north Africa. Aces somehow keeps me in touch with him. Glad to be here!!

I recently purchased the Academy 1/72 P-47D (Razorback) kit, want to build a diorama depicting when P-47s were ferried to the Marianas on escort carriers. The 318th group P-47s launched off the Manila Bay because of Japanese aircraft in the area. Has anyone scratch built an aircraft carrier...
