F4U Corsair Korean War Hero

[CraigBirkhold]

Is Korean War Hero back flying after the landing accident in May of 14? Any recent pics would also be appreciated. Thanks

Sure did Craig, even raced at Reno this year, you can see more if you search, Korean War Hero Facebook! Sorry don't have the www.-, but the search would be easy.

I'd say she's looking pretty good.

Thanks for the update on Korean War Hero. West Pac must have worked overtime to get it back in flying condition that fast. Great to see it back in the air! The second photo above looks like it has a window for a back seat. Question....has a new back seat been installed or has it always been there and I jusr did not notice? Any thoughts on that subject?
Thanks for the info.

Craig,

I'm pretty sure that 'rear window' is an optical illusion created by the curvature of the canopy.
