Hello,
I spent too much time working on my Macchi C.202 and I didn't have time to participate in GB#43
My project had something particular because it was Werner Mölders Bf 109F-1 (with Bf 109E Karman connection between wings and fuselage)... I had moulded the resin parts but finally I decided to build something that I have not in my display case: a P-47D Thunderbolt !!!
I think everybody knows the model kit
This time it will be a chain manufacturing ! I'll build three models in the same time. Three P-47D Razorback from 56FG.
A P-47D-5-RE SN42-8461 from 61st FS flown by Robert S. Johnson sometime early 1944 before or after the aircraft noses of the 56FG are repainted with 3 colors, very probably around the 15th of February 1944; I'm not decided yet.
A P-47D-10-RE SN42-75207 from 62nd FS flown by Fred Christensen sometime late 1943 early 1944 (before the aircraft noses of the 56FG are repainted with 3 colors).
A P-47D-11-RE SN42-75510 from 61st FS flown by Francis S. Gabreski early 1944 before or after the aircraft noses are repainted with 3 colors; I'm not decided yet.
Start by the cockpit in Dull Dark Green; a True Details resin cockpit for the D-5 and an Aires cockpit resin for the D-10 and the D-11.
