Re: "technical" question about a P-47 crash

Hey guys,

back home after a jump on crahsite:

a big surprise was to find here; the "P-47" was in reality a... F-104G Starfighter! I found an identification plate in the fields in open air yesterday! (after 3 hours walking in the naked fields).

Concerning our questions about the "dispersion of parts on crahsite", it in reality was about 500 meters long !!!, as I could check yesterday:

It now sounds better, according with the "Starfighter" speed (2300km/h in high altitude!!!), a little bit to long for a P-47!

In conclusion: no Thunderbolt ...but a Starfighter ; not to bad!

Thanks for having helped!

Mathias
