I fell in love with the Corsair, like many boys in the 70s, while watching Robert Conrad in "Bas Baa Black Sheep"

The Corsair, Mustang and Spitfire are top 3 of my most favorite WW2 planes ever!

Love the sound of the idle on that big bird even more than the thrum of the engine singing in flight. My uncle flew a Vought F4U over the South Pacific while Dad was being shot down (after a handful of good bombing runs in Germany) in his B-25 Mitchell over France. The Russians rolled over the wires in his Stalag and freed them all, so he made it back. Fond and sad memories, as both are gone now.

My late Dad flew an F4U during WWII.. He was a member of the VBF-1 bomber/fighter squadron based on the USS Bennington (CV-20)

Love those radial engines. They just lumber along churning out power without seeming to over stressed.

[WilliamTankersley-hp]

Great job on the video. Beautiful Aircraft !! Loved seeing it fly w/the P-38.

[brianesselbach]

Likely the most beautiful duo there is.

[AndreiTupolev]

How nice to be completely free of inane commentary, even mor inane music, and extraneous noise from other aircraft or things on the ground. Also nice to see full loops, rather than Immelmann turns like display pilots in the US invariably seem to do. Particularly pleasing formation loop with the P-38.

The best piston engine fighter of all time, bar none. The Corsair was shooting down Mig's in Korea.

Love the sound of a radial engine, you can always pick it, if you know what you are listening for ...

[robinmcclain]

Excellent cinematography and Pure sound!!!

[cptairwolf]

Thank you for keeping the video free or all other sounds.

[adriandelgado]

Nice to see this ol’ girl still groovin’

[kevenclickner]

Good stuff there . 2400 horsepower absolutely incredible. Second world war fighter planes the epitome of the piston driven engine.
love those p-38s too.

[raybame]

Great show. Liked the full loops by 2 really different birds. Pilots' formation flying was superb. Videography was also superb. thanks..

My grandfather was a mechanic in the army air corps he loved the f4u but his true love was the p47 he called the flying tank

Finally, after waiting since I was a kid, I finally got to see a F4U Corsair not only fly but take pictures up close. I can now die a happy man! Took my kids to the Warhawk Air Museum Air Show in Nampa, ID last weekend where we saw three P-40 Warhawk's, three different P-51 Mustangs (including the Boise Bee), a P-38 Lightning, a B-25 Mitchell, some T-6's and torpedo bombers and of course the F4U Corsair. So glad I took my kids there to hear the 1940's music and watch these warbirds fly right over us.

such a sweet sound to the ears and an awesome sight.

[oldfriend]

4:49 absolute euphoria to watch those two in formation.

I love that redbull Corsair. The nose art is tasteful and doesn’t feel out of place.
