Thank you so much for posting this great video of the Commemorative Air Force Goodyear FG-1D Corsair. It is based at Lancaster, Texas. This Corsair has a dedicated website, however under the rules of YouTube I am unable to place the URL here. If you type CAF Corsair into the Google Search Engine, the website will come up at the top of the listings. Thanks again.
Supposingly there is one of "Super Corsairs" with R-4360 engine still in airworthy condition, NX5588N. It's a former air racer owned by Bob Odegaard and at some stage it has been on display at Lone Star Museum in Galveston. Sure would not mind hearing that.
I would like to see the Corsair type that had the 'corn cob'engine. Those not in the know; the corn cob was the radial that had 4 banks of 9 cylinders total 36 jugs. This engine also powered the B36.
Those NOT in the know would say 4 banks of 9
cylinders. Those IN the know would say 4 banks of 7 or 28 cylinders. KOWNT !!
