Corsair BuNo 122039.... F4U-5 or F4U-5N/NL?

Sat Oct 29, 2005 8:13 pm

Does anyone have any info on this aircraft. I am building a 1/48 Hasegawa Corsair finished in this scheme, and it says that this plane should have -5N/NL flame dampeners. Maybe it was delivered as a -5N/NL and the radar was removed when it was a reserve aircraft????? Any info is appreciated.

Joe Baugher's site lists BuNo 122039 as an F4U-5N.
