OFMC Corsair pictures

I wonder if anybody out there has any pictures of the OFMC Corsair during the period 1999-2002 (ish) when it had an overall (New Zealand) grey scheme with Breitling logos and yellow cowl. I am particualrly looking for top and bottom views of the wings but any other view would be realy useful 🙂

I did have a copy of FlyPast with what I remember to be a really good detail picture on the cover, but this seems to have been lost in the mists of time/boxes in the loft!

Any help greatfully recieved, if nothing else it is a good excuse to look at some nice Corsair pics.

Lovely pictures everybody, all the angles I could have asked for…

(I was unsure as to whether the roundles/bars on the wings were repeated either side or were american style)

… I was about to post asking for a close up of the Duck nose art when the link appeared, thanks very much Glenn.

Just in case you are curious for the purpose of my request, it is for a little project currently sat on my kitchen sideboard, I’d better move it or it will get in the way of a stir-fry later! 🙂

Cheers!

This one was taken at Oostwold Aerodrome, May 2000, in the NE of the Netherlands. Because my filmscanner just went broke, this is the only picture I’ve readily available.
