Great video! The P-47 was an outstanding fighter! One of the things that set it apart was its air-cooled engine. It could be riddled with bullets and keep on going.
There used to be a saying among pilots during WWII, "If you want to impress your girl, have your picture taken in a P-51, Mustang. If you want to make it home to your girl, fly a P-47, Thunderbolt." Both planes were invaluable to the allied victory.
Cool
How did America (and Britain) ever create such men? Truly amazing. Can we produce such men again? We may need to.
Thunderbolt=Flying Tank
