P47D needs info

Hey, Thunderbolt lovers!

I've had this photo in my collection for about 10+ years and have always loved the colors.
Mostly silver, but the shade of aqua-blue (maybe you call it turquoise?) has me salivating.

I usually hate the "jug", but if someone can give me more information about this particular plane and
where I can find a fuse and wing profile, I'd love to skin this baby! Look at the tread pattern on the tires,
it looks like they put tractor tires on this plane.

Help me out, guys,

I have a skin that resembles your picture I think. I don't remmeber whose skin it is or where I got it. It's called 318th fg. RedeRuth.

Wow!!!!!!

That's it! Yes, it's 318th and it's a P47N type. How did you find it so fast? But wait, where is the tractor and crane? Where's the maintenance crew and sandy beach?

Much appreciated, thanks!

Looks like "French Blue" to me

Dave, that was uncalled for! Why do you want me to have second thoughts about doing that skin?

<S?>

Joes1944, I'm assuming that skin you posted as download.jpg is from IL2? or is it from TW? Does that IL2 game have a Macintosh version?

Sorry, I get lost in the gibberish some times. TW? Yes it's from IL-2. I don't know but assume that it does have a version for mac. It's at Mission for today/ P-47D/18th down.
