Geez, that first one looks kinda like a black and white version of John Bagley's recent mishap with his Mustang.

Wow! Neat to see and depressing all at the same time.

I'm sure all those planes were written off back then and junked. Today, everyone of those, except for maybe the first picture, would be repaired and flown again.

What is the round insignia under the wing of the P-47?

I think it may be one of those lites that they had under the wing.

Yep, it's definately the landing light. It was originally located behind the wheel well, but I beleive it was moved outboard on the later Ds and Ms when the added the compressibility flaps.

I sure would like to see some photos of that P-47 before the accident. It appears to have a really cool paint job. Any other photos of that one, Jack??
