P47 was an excellent aircraft. Learned more about the from a friend who’s father flew one in WWII. We traveled to Millville, NJ for a racing event. It was a major training base for the P47. Upon entering the track, they had dioramas of a bunker with a scaled down 3/4 size plane in it. When walking the dirt parking area I found a spent 50 cal casing. This was in 2015.

That would be a pretty awesome find. It’s not common to find left overs like that. Ive been to a number of decommissioned military airbases while filming standing mile races. I always poke around the dirt and look for little things like that and have yet to find anything.
