croato Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 If you remember, on May 27, 2016, during an exhibition in New York, a Republic P-47D-40-RA Thunderbolt "Jackey's Revenge" (s / n 44-90447) crashed into the Hudson River. Unfortunately, the pilot was killed. Few people know that the same plane, but with the number 13012 flew in the Yugoslav skies. One of the 133 last fighter piston aircraft in JRV ( Jugoslovensko Ratno Vazduhoplovstvo - Yugoslav Air Forces) ... According to drawings from the magazine AEROPLAN 4/89, it is stated that the remains of American marks and numbers could be seen on some planes under the Yugoslav markings . Never found anything that confirms or denies this fackts so I let my imagination run wild ... The model is Eduard and is OOB To show the size of the plane ( it's 1/144 scale), I made a figure of a pilot. Painted with Vallejo Metal Color, all decals are homemade. That's all folks and thanks for your time ( sorry for my bad french) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Metal finish and incompletely removed US markings look grand but the pilot is what really impresses me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
