Chance-Vought F4U-1 Birdcage Corsair - Model by Ivan

View attachment 119992
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.
