    My Father was a USMC Aviator in the Pacific Theatre during WWII. He flew Hellcats and then Corsairs. I have a few old black and white photos of him in the cockpit of his Corsair.

      So cool. My grandpa fought in the Pacific too. His unit was sent into Hiroshima 5 days after it was bombed. I have pictures of him with survivors that they were giving help to and the city looks like it was bulldozed flat. Just piles of rubble.
      War is hell, but it was a better option than invading Japan.

      @@saltysteel3996 You're right. The Jap's have such pride in themselves and their country that only when their backs were up against the wall and warned them that Tokoyo was next, did they finally surrender. They knew we meant business. And, after all, they STARTED it by surprise, attacking our main naval fleet at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.

    My favorite WW ll fighter, I met Pappy Boyington at the Oshkosh Wisconsin EAA fly in 1987, before he passed away in Jan. 1988. What a thrill I didn't know he was going to be there. I was walking through one of the buildings and he had a booth there. There wasn't anyone there at that moment so I was able to talk with him a little while and shake his hand. I told him I was a fan of the Black Sheep TV show and he said it wasn't very true to life which I already figured. I was so in awe seeing him there when I didn't expect to, that I forgot to ask him for his autograph until a day later. I was never in the Air Force or anything, but I did get my private pilots license in 87 when I was 29. Like I said, what a thrill for me, a new pilot, to meet him, a 5x ace from WW ll. I have no proof I met him...but I'll never forget it!!

      I am from Argentina. When I was a child, a retired couple lived across the street from my house. She had the peculiarity of having a strong accent since she was American, and he had been a pilot. Well, one summer my uncles spent a few days at home and they started to get to know them and invited us to take a tea at their house. To my surprise, we started looking their photos and I learned his story. He had been a pilot in the Argentine Air Force, but despite the fact that the country was neutral in WW2, he fought in the US Navy in the Pacific theater. And in fact, at the end of the conflict, he took a beautiful nurse from Philadelphia to Argentina. A lovely woman. But I still remember the huge photo he had of a Corsair with the palm trees of some Pacific island with all the pilots of the squadron standing on its wings. Every time I see this plane, it reminds me of that old man and the admiration I began to feel for him. I now live in Paris, and last month I was lucky enough to see this plane fly at Air Legends 2024. I always regret not having taken the opportunity to talk to him and hear more stories about what that conflict was like.

    I truly believe that out of all of the great human creations in the world and in the history of humanity, imho, fighter planes (all types, prop or jet) are at the very top of the list of "amazing creations."
    Whether the human creation be books, artwork, structure, medical/biological advancements, buildings, housing, plumbing, electricity, steam power, computers, internet, ships, trains, guns, tools, musical instruments, so many countless other inventions/creations, I truly believe WW2 era prop/piston driven fighter planes are, and this Corsair here being a wonderful example of one, is something that is of true greatness.
    Regardless of inherent flaws or limits of the late 30's and early to mid 40's of engineering and aircraft manufacturing, aircraft like this I would be proud to say is one thing humans created that inspires and impresses without fail.
    Obviously, we have so many other models of fighter planes that are just as amazing, too many to list here including other types of aircraft besides "fighter" types but will name some that come to mind that have an allure that never gets old at least for me personally since the mid 1980's... P-38, P-47, P-51, P-40, P-39/63, Hawker Sea Fury, Hurricane/Spitfire, F-7 Tigercat and Bearcat, some Italian and Russian ones from WW2 whose names I don't remember, and my favorite jets F-4, A-4, F-5, F-16, F-18, F-22, God so many that required oceans of people power, engineering, drafting, money, testing, and so much.
    Sorry for the ramble everyone it is just that military aviation was a personal obsession of mine from the age of 5 to about 27. I envy that pilot flying this Corsair very much. He is able to experience in peace time what our vets did under the most extreme of duress.
    What is also another amazing aspect to looking at this video is that 80 years ago, that aircraft was not made for fun or to show off. It was made as a weapons platform.

    My uncle flew a Corsair in the Pacific war. Dad was so disappointed that he was too tall at 6'2" to fly fighters. He settled on a Mitchell B-25.
    I loved both men deeply. RIP to a pair of Greatest Generation heroes.

    Wow ! That bird is Beautiful !
    They never looked that good when they were right off the assembly line thats for sure.
    F4U is my most favorite plane of all time, well next to the F22 anyways, and number 3 is the A10.
    We sure build some Awesome stuff !
    They charge way to much but it is Awesome and the best in the world for sure.

    I worked my summer evenings for a gentleman that was an agricultural aerial applicator but he also owned one of these magnificent planes. There is not a WW II aircraft that looks or has the whistle or howl of the Corsair. The Japanese named it the “Whistling Death”!

    When I was younger I worked for a retired Lt Commander in the navy who flew most of the piston powered planes during WW2 and he said the Corsair was his favorite plane,very agile, fast and manueverable, He called it The bent wing widow maker, it was known as that name be cause it suffered no fools for pilots. He also said the wings were bent to accomodate the diameter of the big propn for extra groung clearance. He also praised the Hell Cat.

    The air duct you see before the large opening for the R-2800 indicates this wasp motor is supercharged. So its actually making closer to 2,800-3,000 horsepower

    • @dougthompson1598
      @dougthompson1598 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      All R2800 engines in fact had some sort of supercharging, from early singe-speed/single -stage mechanical to the complicated turbosupercharger on the Thunderbolt. The highest power output for any in service was the -73 in the P-61 with a turbosupercharger and 2800hp. The highest power Corsairs to see service in WW2 had 2380hp with the -18W, which had water/methanol injection to get that power, but only for short bursts, and the -32W, also with water/methanol, plus a variable speed two-stage supercharger.

    Помню, у меня лет в тринадцать была авиамоделька Корсара. Я тогда уже научился их клеить более-менее нормально😊. Но покрасил его я зеленой краской для стен. Другой не было. А звёзды раскрасил маминым лаком для ногтей. Конечно! Это же должен был быть советский самолёт! 😊 но как же он был хорош со своими гнутыми крыльями! Все ребята во дворе мне завидовали...😊

    Just hope they did a penetrant dye inspection or an x-ray inspection of all the primary structure elements that might have microscopic cracks before they subject them to air loads and aerodynamic forces. That would be the safest approach to restoring and bringing this vintage aircraft up to airworthiness.
