Description
The thing that I find attractive about this plane is the way the engine sits in that egg-shaped opening in the front.
..........
This is a Republic P-47. For those of you (like Rob) who absolutely HAVE to know everything there is to know about every plane in the world, you can click HERE to learn more about the P-47 in general.
This plane is at the Flying Heritage Collection at Paine Field in Everett, Washington. It's airworthy, and is scheduled to fly three times this summer.

Interesting indeed... great shot!
And I'll bet there are a few guys who would LOVE to be able to be in that plane when it flies!!
Nice shot Tara, looks like it has new props.. well done!!
Fantastic shot, Tara! the colours are wonderful as is the POV
Nice shot of the props.
There is something so romantic about prop planes; leather helmets, silk scarves, Rita Hayworth. Wonderful capture and POV. It is indeed an attractive plane.
Oh this is great! It feels like I'm looking him in the eyes! Sorry about the non-connections this weekend! It was a BUSY one for me! :))
I like the smug little smile on his face!
Super-sharp image! Excellent composition (would I expect otherwise...?)
Great shot; I love the colours and the shapes too...
Isn't this "Tallahassee Lassie"? ...grin...I know it is. You've really done a remarkable job postworking this. I like the way you've muted the background and popped the plane forward just a bit. Nice job:)
LOL Well, thanks for that.. But its so true! Cool 'on the knees' shot of this great plane! Looks great, you have done a great job with dulling the background... I'll have to figure that but I don't think 'Elements' does it... Great shot.. Rob
AN awesome shot of this beautiful little plane. I see what you mean about the engine :-)
Great photo! In 1972 I was at Keesler AFB in Biloxi, Miss. The Air Force was flying these huge fighters from the base constantly, as trainers... for Iranian fighter pilots!
