The first version of the Corsair supplied to the US Navy was restricted to Land Bases because of poor low speed handling and stall characteristics and a tendency to bounce on landing. These planes were also given to the US Marines and the Royal Navy who welcomed them for their high performance.
This model represents a late model F4U-1 Corsair with a Birdcage Canopy Frame with additional outer wing tanks and a bomb rack.
Let me know what you think of this plane.
Enjoy!
