Jabowil, sorry I never got back to you. I'm in the Navy and was suddenly "needed" elsewhere. Just got back a few weeks ago and haven't flown mine since I left in April. I don't know if you still have your GSP P-47 but I've still got mine. I planted mine on my first flight back in the early spring. All went as well as could be expected until I started a loop a bit too close to the ground. As I came down the back side I thought the ground was coming up a bit too fast. The ensuing pull must have snap rolled the plane when it was about level, and caught me by surprise, it did about two turns and hit. Ripped the wing out of the fusegage and broke a few plywood fuselage formers. After about a week of staring at it I bought a fiberglass repair kit and went to town. The wing came out as one piece so it was really a matter of rebuilding the wing hold down areas. I built new formers out of beefier plywood and glessed these in. So far its had about 10 flights since the rebuild and although its not too pretty, it flies OK. This was my first larger warbird and the first flight taught me not to fly it like its a sport plane. Hope you like yours and let me know if you have any specific questions/advice. Happy flying.
