    Reminds me of the first two cars in, IIRC, Ogden Utah, Model As. Both cars were destroyed the second day in town because neither driver would yield the right of way at an intersection.

    Well, it says "F4U-1" on the right margin, so I don't have a clue. :D

    That would explain the splash forward, the gear hitting the water before the bird went down.

    ... the two chutes are good to see. I met a guy who nearly got run over by Enterprise. He was still hinky a year later.
