It will when they get an engine back on it...

I feel that the bar will be raised by Nelson and his crew with the restoration of the Brewster Corsair....

Saw the Corsair at Nelson's yesterday.. Its in good hands now...

Yup, I was at the Ezell website earlier today and they've really gotten on with the program...already stripped down to the bare spar in the wing etc..

Whassup with the P-51 wing from Cavanaugh?

EDIT address error

The wings are painted and the cardboard is to protect the surface of the fusleage. It will be a show stopper at Oshkosh..

Thanx Lynn!

[whistlingdeath77]

so if the engine is put back in will it be on the airshow circut?

[Warbird Kid]

Considering their track record, I would say its definitly probable. CFM gets out with their aircraft. I mean they did bring the P-40 all the way to Geneseo a couple years ago.
