Kevin Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 If I was going to build an airplane at home, I'd build one that would act less silly in the air than a Corsair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something with less frightening stall characteristics. They didn't call the Corsair the "Ensign Eliminator" for no reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley P Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 RIP to the crewmen. Why couldn't they crash some Cessnas or something? Is that a P51 kamakazi attack on a B17? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley P Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Once as a child on the school bus, as the driver rolled from a stop sign while trusting the turn signal of an oncoming car, I yelled "Look out!" and she stopped (and nearly cussed me). I don' t know what I'd yell to the plane Captain at the 2:14 mark, but I'd be on the ground before that plane reached V1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley P Posted September 13, 2023 Author Share Posted September 13, 2023 Radial engine problem at 440 mph. I assume the pilot feathered the prop and idled/killed the engine quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
