Ohhh...... these are paratroopers.

I had them mistaken for AA shells exploding.

As amazing as it sounds those are Paratroopers. I have seen footage of them doing this during training exercises, only the plane I saw them train on looked very similar to a Conestoga wagon with wings. The entire top part of the mid fuselage was simply the planes inner frame work minus the sheetmetal. The whole thing is rather comical to watch. Some of the men had to scoot on their butts out to about midwing and then slide off.

Is there anybody out there who would like to redesign the existing P47 Thunderbolt so that it matches the same silver design as the Mustang ?
