Re: Need help with P-47 ID
I'm thinking Ed may be correct about the photograph. The shadows on the pilot's face and accoutrements suggest sun coming from his left to right, given the facial shadow and the shadow of the oxygen mask. The horizonal stablizer's shadow suggests sun is above, and slightly from the front of the aircraft to the rear. This would contradict the pilot's shadows. The remainder of the pilot's iniform is indescernible, which is a bit odd.
How often has Ed found on eBay or has anyone seen such a photograph, of a just belly-landed pilot posing in front of his aircraft?
