• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

P-47D-40 THUNDERBOLT - CFS3
V2.85.07
AvHistory 1% Aircraft General Statement and Installation Instructions
It is the intention of the AvHistory 1% project to over time build the most accurate aircraft that the CFS3 software can support. The development of a 1% aircraft requires specific and in many cases dramatic changes to the aircraft delivered with the MS game as well as the addition of aircraft built from the ground up by third parties which were never included in the original MS game. We believe that because the AvHistory 1% aircraft are materially different they should not be mixed with "box stock" aircraft in online combat.
All the planes 1% listed for download are qualified for use in our AvHistory William Tell Meet Air Combat Ladder. For information and to get the sign up sheet for the ladder please go to the LINKS section at http://www.avhistory.org
P-47D-40 THUNDERBOLT
This aircraft was built by Gregory SARGE Pierson using version 2.82.100 of the AvHistory 1% Assembly Line process. It is based on the stock MS P-47D modified by SixGhost.
Dan Swart did the really great custom livery of Maj Glenn Eagleston's P47D-40 Serial 44-20473. He was the CO of the 9th Air Forces 354th FS.
Many of the 9th Air Force pilots became celebrated aces despite being generally assigned to tactical ground attack missions. Maj. Glenn Eagleston of the 354th Fighter Group ran up the highest score in the 9th. With no less than 18.5 confirmed victories, it is reasonable to speculate how high his total may have been had he flown with the 8th Air Force instead.
After WW2, he served again in Korea flying F-86 Sabre Jets, where he flew 84 missions and commanded the Fourth Fighter Group. He destroyed two MiG-15's.
