I wonder how many are still airworthy?
Love that aircraft.
What was the TV series that featured pilots flying the Corsair from an airfield in the Pacific? Course they were not painted red like that beauty.

It was "Black Sheep Squadron".

They flew over our house daily.

I'm pretty sure there will be at least one flying for Skyfair at Paine Field, Everett, WA in July.
IF, there will be a Skyfair this year...

Great plane and paint job! Made famous by Marine aviator Pappy Boyington with the Black Sheep squadron in the Pacific during WW II.

Such a cool airplane. My favorite of the era. One of the best if not the best. Very nice photo.

What a great photo. That 4-blade prop just suggests gobs of power available. One of the great WW-II war machines.
