From an era at the starting point of Naval Aviation this folding wing BiPlane was first posted with an old style jet prop which was always a bit compromised. Group 1 and the slider down to unfold the wings and then crank the power up for take off. If you are harsh with the controls she will bite you but is otherwise a pleasure to fly and you can get her onto the bigger carrier with a couple of goes. Camera 1 in effect becomes the cockpit camera.
