Republic P-47C-2-RE Thunderbolt Unit: 61st Fighter Squadron, 56th Fighter Group Halseworth, England 1943 Pilot: Capt Frank E. McCauley The U.S. Army Air Force’s P-47 Thunderbolt was a very effective fighter and fighter bomber. It was ruggedly built and heavily armed, famed for its ability to absorb damage, bringing its pilot home after inflicting punishment on the enemy. The P-47 was conceived and engineered to be a high-altitude interceptor. Its designed purpose was to act in a defensive role, destroying attacking hostile bombers. However, by the time the P-47 became operational, it had become clear to military planners that an air attack on the continental United States was highly unlikely. Newly classified as an escort fighter, the first P-47s were sent to England to support bomber missions. Even though the Thunderbolt’s range was limited to a combat radius of 200 miles, it was still about 50 miles more than the Spitfires of the time. The P-47C-2 and P-47C-5 are historically important since they were the first P-47s to see combat. The first fighter groups to receive P-47Cs were the 4th, 78th, and 56th Fighter Groups. These P-47Cs arrived in Great Britain a few days before Christmas of 1942. Further shipments were planned to equip the three fighter groups with enough Thunderbolts to fill three squadrons in each Group. The 8th Air Force hoped to have all three Fighter Groups operational by mid-February 1943. Unfortunately, radio and engine problems during high altitude testing made that goal unattainable. Once the solution to the communication problem was achieved, a sweep of 24 P-47C Thunderbolts over the Pas de Calais from all 3 Groups marked the real beginning of P-47 combat missions on April 8, 1943.

F4F-3 Wildcat VF-6
F4F-3 Wildcat VF-6 (Category: CFS2 > Aircraft)

Grumman F4F-3 Wildcat VF-6 USS Enterprise (CV6) February 1, 1942 The original Grumman F4F-1 design was a biplane, which proved inferior to rival designs, necessitating a complete redesign as a monoplane, the F4F-2. This design was still not competitive with the Brewster F2A Buffalo which won initial U.S. Navy orders. Grumman completely rebuilt the prototype as the XF4F-3 with new non-folding wings and tail and a supercharged version of the Pratt & Whitney R-1830 "Twin Wasp" radial engine.Testing of the new XF4F-3 led to an order for F4F-3 production models, the first of which was completed in February 1940. The U.S. Navy officially adopted the aircraft type as the Wildcat. Armed with four .50 in (12.7 mm) Browning machine guns, it joined active units in 1940. At the time of Pearl Harbor, only Enterprise had a fully equipped Wildcat squadron, VF-6. By the end of February, 1942 the US Navy had replaced its Brewster F2A's with the F3F-3 and F3F-3A Wildcats. The fixed wing F4F-3 Wildcat was generally outperformed by its major opponent the Mitsubishi Zero, but it was more successful in combat partly because, with relatively heavy armor and self-sealing fuel tanks, the Grumman airframe could survive far more damage. In the hands of an expert pilot with a tactical advantage, the Wildcat could prove a difficult opponent even against the formidable Zero. USN Commander "Jimmy" Thach devised a very effective defensive tactic that allowed Wildcat formations to act in a coordinated crossover maneuver to counter a diving attack, called the "Thach Weave".

FeelThere Map screens megapack (Category: FSX > Payware)
16.79Mb (45 downloads)
This package looks to be my final release of its' kind. Here are over 250 different screens for use with FeelThere Map; an amalgamation of my prior work into one package. You must have the payware add-on, FeelThere Map installed. These screens will work in FS9 and FSX, but were not tested in other sims. They should work in any sim that works with FeelThere Map (i.e. compatible versions of P3D). Many more complete airline sets are found here, along with a few sensible national groupings, a new bizjet operator grouping, and the addition of luxury brand advertisements for our high-end GA cockpit interiors, or to perhaps complete a set for an airline that might only have 2 or 3 screens of its' own. Lots of retro carriers, and some of the complete sets draw from historic timetable art, and/or bring type specificity. There are other packages from different authors available on the internet that would enable the construction of several more complete airline sets, for the dedicated VA pilot. Speaking of VAs, there's a few VA-specific groupings herein, as well. There's literally something here for every Map-enabled aircraft and flight context in your hangar. Enjoy your flights.

Republic P-47D-11-RE Thunderbolt Unit: 84th Fighter Squadron, 78th Fighter Group, Duxford England June/July 1944 Pilot: Lt. Frank E. Oiler The U.S. Army Air Force’s P-47 Thunderbolt was a very effective fighter and fighter bomber. It was ruggedly built and heavily armed, famed for its ability to absorb damage, bringing its pilot home after inflicting punishment on the enemy. The P-47 was conceived and engineered to be a high-altitude interceptor. Its designed purpose was to act in a defensive role, destroying attacking hostile bombers. However, by the time the P-47 became operational, it had become clear to military planners that an air attack on the continental United States was highly unlikely. Newly classified as an escort fighter, the first P-47Cs were sent to England to escort bomber missions. The P-47 D-11 Was a further refinement of the P-47 line, adding more armor protection for the pilot, fuel and oxygen systems, improvements to the turbocharger ducting, added two additional cowl flaps on either side of the cowling to improve engine cooling, and added water/alcohol mix injection to provide an emergency power boost of 15% for a short period. Underwing pylons capable of carrying bomb and drop tanks did not appear until production block D-15. However the 78th FG and other groups in England installed the racks which could still carry bombs only. They were not made capable of using drop tanks because fitting the plumbing through the wing was a major refit issue. For some unknown reason the lower two cowl flaps were trimmed back to match the D-15 cowl flaps. Eileen wasn't the only 78th FG earlier block P-47 to receive this treatment.
