F4U Corsair

I cannot find the words to convey how much I love this classic warbird. In fact, this classic warbird is what got me interested in aviation. It is the only aircraft (in my opinion) that exhibits a graceful elegance when it executes maneuvres. It needs not prove itself, it's mere presence is enough. It is the most beautiful & toughest lady ever built.

"Whispering Death"

U.S. Marines stationed in the Pacific during the Second World War, called the Corsair, "Our Workhorse," while Japanese forces are said to have referred to it as "Whispering Death."  Camouflaged in indigo-blue, the plane was likely very difficult to see from the ground only until it was too late for proper implementation of adequate defensive measure.  Undoubtedly one of the most "beautiful & toughest" ladies ever built.  Maneuverability, strenth, speed, armamentation--this bird arguably had it all.  It's haunting to see the plane in such pristine condition once more, almost as if 65 years have suddenly been peeled away.  Outside this webpage's photos, this Corsair is the first I've seen in so profoundly good condition since the Korean War.  Good work, photographer.

What a plane.

I love this airplane. Best looking airplane and best fighter plane ever made. Everytime I see one I wish i could have flown it in WW2.
