This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Mexico had a squadron of T-Bolts in the Pacfic near the end of WWII.
They had a very good reputation for the short time they were in it.

Boo Jack,that 's just a bunch of old airplanes and so far away that you can barely see them. You could take a lesson on truth-in advertising from the casino billboard here that features "Silicone Sunday", and I'm not making this up. Salma would be nice.

Guys:

For those of you interested in the subject of Mexican P-47s, Mr. Santiago Flores wrote an article on them, published here:

www.laahs.com (with apologies to Scott for the plug)

On the left side of the main page, there is a section for Mexican Aircraft articles; go to the last page of that section and you will find the article, titled The Mexican Expeditionary Air Force in the Philippines: A personal account.

Lastly, this photo of a Mexican P-47, over the Phillipine Islands, 1945.

Author is unknown, but the photo was USAAF.

Saludos,
