The A6M2-7 "Zero" !

The only Corsairs l've seen flying werethose in an air show in California back in the 1970s,and as they passed above the crowd at over 470 mph, they emitted a loud,( very loud!!) whispering sound-l imagine at altitude the sound might hav been softer-but there it was....


Great pictures res KBO,!

 

Here's a nice Corsair, taken in New Zealand by a photographer going by the name GLENN. It is copyright from his site. He posts a lot on the newsgroup alt.binaries.pictures.avaition. Likes to go for unusual shots at times. Enjoy

P.S now Roel, and rest of the troop-are you ready for a pic of a THN LTP (export version of the TNH, aka Pz.Kw 38 (t) ) sold to Perú in 1938??

Best regards, KBO.

 

Sure is, l just corrected the typo blame it on one or more of the following!

1) creeping senility
2) the bottle Bushmills l consumed last night
3) Bill Henry had me up at all hours of the night
4) all the above


Up the rebels and best regards!
