The last 6 months I've seen Fi Fi, and several fly overs of a B-24, a B-17, numerous AT-6's, and one that I swear had to be a P-47 jug. You can hear those big radial engines when they are still 10 miles out.
Gotta' go now.
I'm expecting a low alt air drop of brisket from a C-7 Caribou onto my LZ here shortly.
Whose ready to lose to my cooking...let's go!
Very cool...I've never seen a Jug in real life...I prefer the P47B Razorback, myself.
And Ranch dressing? BAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRFFFFFFFFFFFF
You know.... I have to admit something here. (I could do it elsewhere, but too late.) In all the software applications I use, "extreme" red is the color of errors. Enter a wrong userID or password, and you get an "extreme" red error message. In some applications, entering something incorrectly results in a big, "extreme" red stop sign popping up in an error window. (Hey - I program some of that "extreme" red, so should know!) So when I see all that "extreme" red when looking at the THP home page, my brain is flashing "ERROR" "ERROR" "ERROR", rather than "extreme". Now correlate that thought process with an "extreme" TD entry!![]()
Plah!
All P-47's are Jugs.
All piston engine cylinders and heads in aircraft are commonly referred to as "jugs".
