That would be great if you can come. It looks like you may have a H9 Corsair. I would like to put mine up with you and get some photos with another H9 Corsair. I recently modified mine to drop a bomb. Here are a couple of shots of my Corsair that I will be flying.
That sounds cool.
That is my brother's kit-built Top Flight Corsair. He did a wonderful job on it....... 'twice'!!! Last year, he broke both wings off at the bend, at a fly-in, when he tip stalled on landing. Rebuilt it over the winter and has been flying it at events all year without incident. On one flight this year, I was flying it and the gear wouldn't retract. I landed and we found that the supply valve had blown and we lost all air. Still can't believe the gear didn't collapse with 0 pressure, but it held. It was a full flap grease job, fortunately.
We are building a Meister 1/5 scale P-47 (102") and it may be done in time to bring it. Here are the wings with the metal on them. My brother said he wants us to build a Meister Corsair next. Maybe next year for that.
Anyway, we will try to make it. It sounds like fun and isn't too far away.
