Corsair Interceptor

39.1k Weaverfish  7.7 years ago

[Part of my scaled WW2 series - All aircraft built to scale, with accurate weights, speeds and flight characteristics to the original.]

The Corsair's design was combined a powerful engine with a gigantic prop to create an incredible interceptor. The huge prop caused difficulties - landing was planned for carriers, so wings were drooped in an inverted gull configuration to give more room between the prop and the ground.

    @jamesPLANESii I'm just working with an android phone, but I'll try to improve graphics for images. Thanks!

    I agree with the two points you made, @jamesPLANESii. Like you said, this is a great overall replica of the F4U Corsair!

    And possibly calling the planes by their real names.

    Wow! I recommend if you want to get more attention, turning your graphics up and taking more screenshots of your plane. :-)
