Default RE: P-47 PYLON RACER???

THANK YOU FOR THE PICTURE YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! Now I just have to find out the colors. Looking at all thoes pictures breaks my heart. How mant P-39 and P-38 are left now??? My friend who is giving me my flight training had a chance to but a Corsair in the 60's for a woping 5000.00 in airworthy condition. I don't think you could even buy a tire for one for that price. I wonder if 40 years from now planes like the F-14 and many others will end up in the private sector. I doubt it but its nice to dream. I think the P-47 would have done just fine at RENO. The P-51 is a great plane but the P-47 was their first proveing itself in combat!
