Take a look at the Breitling Fighters line up, and tell me what shouldn't be there (unless they're buying this example from someone next door). Anyone know anything...?

RE: Breitling Fighters

Hmmmmm..strange indeed!The paint job certainly looks like TFC's P47. Is it really possible to hurl a Thunderbolt around in formation with the other types?
It also begs the question of what is going to happen with OFMC's Yak-3,which I heard was supposed to be ready before too long.

There is a book called Breifing 2001, it is free with a catalogue from all Breitling stockists and has some nice pictures in it.In this book is a peice on the P-47 which is TFC's but i have not heard of OFMC using it,but i do know they have borrowed aeroplanes in the past for solo displays around europe.

TFC have not sold the P-47 to ofmc but it was at Le Bourget with the BF although I'm not sure if it flew in the formation
