Enjoy!!!!

This aircraft piloted by 1LT. Ernie Sprouse was aircraft "Q" Serial number 44-20246 from the 512th Fighter Squadron as it would of appeared when the squadron was assigned to Nordholz, Germany, c. 1945.  I am told when then 2LT. Ernie Sprouse received this aircraft "Texas Kay" was already painted on the right cowling.  A "payment" of 2 bottles of whiskey ensured "Gladys" would soon appear on the left cowling.  This livery was done by special request for a friend of the now late Ernie Sprouse.  I can only hope I did his aircraft justice.  Enjoy!  

Compatible with both early and late model P-47s!

Intended for competition entry.

"Arizona / Loraine" was a P-47D-30-RA flown by Lt Earl Kielgass, of the 368th Fighter Group, 396th Fighter Squadron, 9th Air Force.

It is depicted as it would have appeared in the spring of 1945.

Intended for competition entry.

While established in 1977, the 254th ‘Road Runners’ trace their lineage back to the 1940s with the 2774th Fighter Group of the same name, which flew P-47 Thunderbolts in the Ground attack role against Belkan forces during the conflict. Now, eighty years later,  the OA-10s of the 245th bear similar markings and the notable red and white checkered pattern to honor their tank busting heritage.

As a Tactical Air Support Squadron, the Road Runners Primary mission is Forward Air Control, marking targets for other A-10s to attack. While not officially used, the term ‘Fast FAC’, adorns many pieces of squadron esprit de corps, in reference to the first pilots assigned to the 254th who had been Fast FAC F-4 pilots during Verusea.

Today the Road Runners operate out of Shiloh, and have deployed both in Yuktobania and Verusea to support OADF operations in both theatres.
