Good to know, it's definitely a surprise because it wasn't in the announcements. Good choice too, I like Razorbacks.
Manual is present too: https://www.aeroplaneheaven.com/img/...7-D_manual.pdf.

btw. Only for me those thumbnails on the webpage dont work, so we cant look closely?
I also noticed not colimated gunsight (its possible to do in MSFS), is it wip still?
Good to see external loadout too like fuel tanks and bombs and gun animation so probably we will see him in ORBX store too and the others.

Top 3 don't work but all the rest down below work fine.

Looks nice but there's no engine sound in the trailer, which is most likely to be the thing that prevents me from picking this up. I'll keep an eye out for a review once it launches, and if the sounds are bad I'll have to see if there's something good to alias it to.

The pictures are impressive. I like the P-47 in DCS. It will be interesting to compare the flight models.

Take my money, make an old man poor. That's a got to have. Here's a livery I did for A2A's Razorback for FSX, George Pretty's. Hope there's a Paint Kit with this too.

Ah, yes, they work, I was on Mac Today morning, on Windows PC they work.

It's great to see the P-47 get attention, and I really enjoyed AH's bubble-top P-47s in FSX. The modeling and exterior texturing shown here with these razorback versions look fantastic. It would be nice to see more green in the color/hue of the cockpit paint.

Being nit-picky, I noticed it has the wrong throttle lever for the gunsight fitted - the throttle lever fitted is the twist type as installed when the K-14 gyro site was fitted, where as with the earlier reflector sites, as shown in the AH models, the throttle lever was of this style: https://scontent.ffcm1-2.fna.fbcdn.n...6g&oe=663155E5

Still no notice of this pending release on the main MS site...interesting.

I love the P-47 in all iterations and am a fan of Aeroplane Heaven - products and people. I can't wait to fly their Razorback
Usually when I issue a challenge I like to win it, but this is an exception I'm happy to make.
I thought MY P-47 would be finished before we had a flyable one in MSFS but AH seems to have the edge.

Im very curious about the quality and volume of the sound of the working supercharger, it was quite a howling sound, clearly different from the sound of the engine.

Its out!

But the puzzle went wrong.

**Javis** · April 1st, 2024, 05:01

Didn't you forget something ?...:

It’s 1/16 scale and no - it is a static display model from Guillow’s

back on topic - I would love to have Col. Steve Pisanos' P-47D in flight sim

**LegendaryFighters** · April 2nd, 2024, 05:19

I've always wanted a P-47 Thunderbolt for MSFS and it looks like my wish has finally come true!

nice video - and good on them fellers at AH to let us configure the loadouts and even having the pylons removable.

**DennyA** · April 2nd, 2024, 21:13

It's out!

I went to jump and buy it so I could fly a little before bedtime.

$33.99 US. Yikes.

Gonna wait for reviews. But really, likely gonna wait for a sale.

The price is slightly high by MSFS standards, and compared to IronFlight Simulation add-ons, which are at a higher level according me and are normally priced at $29 and do not exceed the psychological barrier of $30 but its own AH policy. I'll probably hold off for now (but cant promise!

I love P-45 and his turbine sound). I read some comments on FB and the model requires a patch (not my opinion). Apparently there is no animation of opening the canopy (just open and close), wheels are a little above the ground, lod problems on external (part of model dissapears) and sound loop sometimes (from VC view). However, it is praised for his look and functionality, also skins look nice. Im waiting for more comments.

Btw. Its present in ORBX store too from now: https://orbxdirect.com/product/aeroplaneheaven-p47d.
