Poncho,
May I call your sattention to the green, crescent-shaped item that lies immediately forward of the
black hood with the sqaure hole in it? It lies rather between the black hood and the base of the windshield frame.
This "green crescent" has escaped my ability to find it in any photos.It is an original part of the JHAT pit, and I fear it's existence in the actual P-47 is not a certainty.
I think it makes that portion of the dash look unecessarily busy.
Would it be possible to dispense with the crescent and extend the black hood all the way up to the base of the windshield frame ? Please get input form others first, but IMO it would be closer to the prototype than what we currently see.
Oh, and BTW, I had to wait for 20 minutes to stop salivating before it was safe to approach my keyboard to write this
