The Japanese had a squadron of 2 seater versions of the P35 that was operational.

I have seen P47s fly many times...



A photo I took a couple years ago at the Thunder Over Michigan air show.

Most of the ones currently flying are probably louder than WW2 operational birds as they are not using the turbo chargers.

Still, wonderful to see in flight.
