    Default P47D unboxing and assembly video

    Probably one of the earliest of those annoying unboxing videos I have ever seen...although this is probably of more interest than most!

    Dont normally post here WW1 is my thing but thought you guys might be interested in this

    Training footage for newly-minted mechanics (not to mention the poor blighters who'd get dragooned into providing Strong Backs for the project).

    I must admit I am impressed with the ingenuity of being able to use nothing more than a length of rope, a shovel, the packing case and a standard tool kit to assemble a flyable aircraft in the field, straight off the back of a truck. There is something about the elegant simplicity of that kind of engineering which appeals to me.
