Cool Re: WWII F4U Corsair Training flim

Awesome video Starman. Lot more complex than a C150/152.

Re: WWII F4U Corsair Training flim

That's a great find, JP! First time I saw the cowling 'flaps' deployed automatically. Not that it was a big deal....

One thing that came to my mind was that I wonder how the 'enemy' managed to fly a captured example of this bird
without the benefit of a pilot's manual specific to this type of airplane. It seems to me that you have to go through the proper
motions and set up before you could even take it up into the sky.
