Restored P-47 Thunderbolt 'Wicked Wabbit' Taxiing at Lloyd Tennessee Air Museum Air Show, June 7, 2014

The restored Republic P-47 Thunderbolt 'Wicked Wabbit' taxies out for a demonstration flight at the Lloyd Tennessee Air Museum air show. Thunderbolts like this one were prized by WWII pilots for their rugged construction and heavy firepower, qualities later echoed by the A-1 Skyraiders that succeeded them in the close air support role.
