DickD Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 This is the kind of damage the P47 can sustain and live to tell the tale. Engaged a U-Boat in the middle of the Channel and hit by enemy fire which caused me to kiss the sea but recovered and flew back to Hawkinge landing safely just in time for the bar opening. How about posting battle damaged Jug pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkickef Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 That damaged prop causes a lot of drag. Why didn't you get your ground crew to arm the ED automatic propeller jettison system before you took off? It's worth an extra 10mph in the cruise after the auto jettison charge blows the hub.

mcnabb100 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 It flys surprisingly well without control surfaces on the tail. I blew my self up with a bomb, blew the control surfaces off the tail and bent up the prop too. No screens sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
