I hope this thread doesn't denegrate into CAF bashing, as most of the similar threads have when the CAF has an accident. The P-47 has had a history of gear problems, this is the first time it has been heavily damaged. A lot of the Jugs over the years have had accidents unfortunately. The POF Jug, N47DD, 47DF to name a few.
