The Corsair is one of my all-time favorite WWII planes. The reason for the "bent" wings is very interesting. I also like the Hellcat and the P-38.

My son works at the restoration hangar for the local wing of the Commemorative Air Force. I think I mentioned before that his team is restoring a Spitfire. We have a Hellcat and a Zero. It is quite a spectacle to see these two former enemies, hangeared side by side and flying side by side.

Awesome pics, thanks for posting them Hattie.
