Sounds to me like you’re thinking about the wreck of Joe Tobul’s Corsair, which was in late 2002, he crashed his F4U-4 Corsair in some trees away from some houses that had been in his path after another pilot noticed him trailing smoke from his engine and he apparently lost power…he WAS credited with steering the plane away from any homes or places that anyone might be residing….check his site, www.koreanwarhero.com for more…
Bluenoser, did you get the note I posted for you about a week ago about a Mustang out here in CO that is gonna be restored in 352nd colors? It’s an ex-Dominican AF Mustang that is being rebuilt from parts and 25% of an original airframe, it will be painted as GR-P, ‘Three of Hearts’, and is owned by Gordon Page of Denver….I can send the paint scheme if you like…let me know…

F4U Corsair DVD !

Mark, thanks for the note and link about what must be a great documentary, can’t wait to get mine. A tribute to a real warhorse and the men who flew them. I am trying to remember some of the details about a Corsair that crashed in Columbia, South Carolina say around 2001 ? It was flying at an air display and the pilot was credited with guiding the plane away from houses before the crash. Do you remember any details on this? I believe the pilot was killed? Looking forward to this DVD. Now if we can just get the powers that be to release “Spitfire Ace” on DVD !

Don’t think so….I know which one you’re talking about, but it is different than the one that was shot partly at the Gathering of Corsairs and Legends back in 2002….that one is 4 discs and 8 hours long and can be previewed at www.f4ucorsair.com…might want to take a look. The one you’re talking about is, of course, shorter.
