| Wouldn't it be more effective to simply have a nominations thread then post a poll? 70 pages is intriguing, but tiresome. P-47D won teh war...after the Hurricane held the line in Britain.  Once the Allies had a foothold in Europe, post D-Day, fighter range became less and less an issue. Certainly the P-51's range allowed feinting on ingress, but by then the Russian offensive was getting it's head of steam and the potential flight distances were getting shorter. The Jug's Radial dependability, excellent firepower, loadout options for ground attack, superior high-altitude performance and decent range make it the hand to beat.
