Don't remember if I've told this story here before. If I have...tough noogies.
When I was a boy in "This Here Now USAF" ('55-59) I worked for a guy who had flown P-47s in WWII. He told me that a flight of 4 Thunderbolts could take down a 2 story house in one pass. I'd pay to see that.

Mudge the roving storyteller :wink:

ps. I can only assume from that, that he'd either done it or seen it done.
