Republic F-105 Thunderchief in aviation art prints by William S Phillips, Robert Taylor, R E Pierce and Ivan Berryman   Republic F-105 Thunderchief. With its powerful afterburning Engine and its swept surface. the F-105 Thunderchief first flew in 1955. This massive fighter bomber nicknamed the "Thud"  saw a new role during the Vietnam war, although many thought it obsolescent by this time,  the aircraft could absorb much battle damage. which would have downed most other aircraft. It was possible for a Thunderchief to sustain a substantial amount of damage and still continue on its mission to bomb with accurate results.

Jaws of the Dragon by Stan Stokes.

The Republic F-105 Thunderchief, or Thud, as it was nicknamed by many of the pilots who flew it, was conceived as a supersonic, low altitude fighter-bomber capable of carrying a nuclear weapon in its internal bomb bay and two more on its wing stations. The F-105 evolved from a proposal made by Republic to the USAF in 1952. A series of delays, cancellations, spec changes, and other problems resulted in a very long gestation period for this aircraft, with initial production models not reaching operational units until 1958. The Thud was a big, powerful aircraft. With a length of 65 feet and a height of 20 feet, the F-105 would typically fly combat missions with a gross weight at takeoff in excess of 50,000 pounds. Although the F-105 was fortunately never utilized for the nuclear mission it was designed for, it did become the primary tactical bomber utilized by the USAF during the Vietnam War. In fact, the Thud flew more than 75% of all the bombing sorties directed at North Vietnam during.........

Lethal Encounter by William S Phillips.


Lethal Encounter by William S Phillips.

On April 19, 1967, then-Major Leo K. Thorsness took on, in the words of another officer, most of North Vietnam all by himself in one of the epic battles of that war. On that day, Thorsness and his backseater, Electronic Warfare Officer Captain Harold E. Johnson, fought about a half-dozenMiGs, shot down one-and probably another while protecting their wingman, who, with his backseater, had been forced to bail out of their damaged aircraft over enemy territory. The artist has captured the moment after Thorsness shot past his kill and continued on, during one of the most valiant efforts in the air war. He left the battle area only for midair refueling and then returned to ward off enemy fighters, staying even after he had run out of ammunition.

With one engine feathered and showing signs of the gauntlet of Flak and fighters she has had to come through, the crew know they are only moments away from the safety of home.

Although all the aircraft were lost and no significant damage was done to the German fleet, all the pilots were decorated for their bravery and Lt-Cdr Esmonde received the first Fleet Air Arm VC to be awarded, albeit posthumously. The painting depicts the first wave of Swordfish attacking the Scharnhorst with Gneisenau taking avoiding action in the distance. A German torpedo boat has turned to confront the attacking aircraft.

Half Price - £50.00 		It was Saturday 4th May 2002, the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Wonderful goals by Ray Parlour and Freddie Ljungberg for Arsenal were too much for their London rivals Chelsea to capture the FA Cup. Four days later, on Wednesday 8th, Arsenal rode into Old Trafford. This time a goal by Sylvain Wiltord on his 100th appearance for the club was enough for Arsene Wenger's team to overcome Manchester United and clinch the Premiership title, maintaining a record of scoring in every league game of the season. For the second time in four years under their long-serving and inspirational captain Tony Adams, Arsenal had performed the classic double of English football, the third in their history making 2001-02, a season never to be forgotten.
