EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Republic P-47D Thunderbolt N14519, a rare aviation treasure housed at the Champlin Fighter Museum located at Falcon Field in Mesa, Arizona, circa 2000. The Thunderbolt, a Republic P-47D-2-RE model with serial number 353, holds a rich history that spans across several decades and various military affiliations. Originally manufactured as 42-8205 for the United States Army Air Forces, this iconic warbird later served in the French Air Force under the designation FAB 007 and was later civilian-registered as NC75640. The Thunderbolt's distinctive nickname, "Big Stud," adds to its allure and character. The P-47 Thunderbolt was a formidable fighter aircraft during World War II, renowned for its powerful engine, heavy armament, and robust design. With a top speed of over 400 miles per hour, it was a force to be reckoned with in the skies. Now, N14519 stands proudly at the Champlin Fighter Museum, a testament to the enduring legacy of aviation history. Visitors to the museum can marvel at the intricate details of this aircraft, from its sleek lines to its powerful engines, and gain a deeper appreciation for the role it played in shaping the skies above. This photograph, from The Tony Lovelock Collection, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the P-47 Thunderbolt ruled the skies with its raw power and unyielding determination. It serves as a reminder of the innovation, courage, and resilience of those who designed, built, and flew these magnificent machines.
