Attention P-47 fans this Saturday 9/17

[Ronv]

Right, I was thinking if someone has a P-47N or B-17 to donate it for this Saturday that would be great. If not available we could do a veterans build to be presented later.

I think a veteran build is good idea but I don't think we can do that by Saturday.

If no one has a P-47N that they are willing to donate......would someone be interested in doing a veteran build?? How about two veteran builds....P-47N and a B-17?
Thanks

This is from a friend in the EAA chapter at Cox Field in Apex.
This P-47 pilot can be looked up on Google, flew P-47N's in the Pacific.
EAA meeting is Saturday morning, they have pancake breakfast and official meeting starts about 8:30 or 9:00. They would like to have a P-47 to display if any club members have a bubble-top, especially an "N".
Thanks,
Norm S.
