Wonderful shots of one of the greatest fighters in WW II and probably the best ground support aircraft in Korea. Friend of the family made Ace in a F4U. Please don't forget the P 38 Lighting in your list of great WW II fighters.
Great shots .., can you imagine being a Zero pilot and see one of these coming after you ..? One of my favorite aircraft next to the P-51 ..and as noted “don’t forget the P-38 .. In the Movie “God Is My Co-Pilot” it was a star...

Thank you very much, safeman; yes, I should have added the P-38 and the Hawker Hurricane.

Oh no. In every respect the P-38 was a fighter. Ask Yamamoto or Zero pilots who were shot down by P-38s in the pacific or Me109 and Fw190 pilots in Europe. It could serve other roles but it was in every respect a fighter.

These photos were taken at the Great New England Airshow, Westover ARB, Chicopee, MA.
Very nice photos Rob. It is a great looking airplane. I built two paper and stick F-4U Corsair models when I was a kid, taught me a lot about this complex dihedral wing construction. I like the prop blur in the last shot! I like the way these are processed. Phil
