I know that I’m going to be a lawndart about 60% of the time but the F4U is one of my favorite warbirds so I’ll likely be jumping in to see how many ways I can crash. :laughing:

I have a feeling that there may be a lot of new craters and corsair parts distributed over the Mariana’s

My corsair parts can be found in the Mariana trench for failing to find my boat again (if I ever make it off)

Reading on the Corsair brings back a bit of nostalgia, or maybe some more :slight_smile: It was the first model kit (1/72) I threw on a glossy finish and in my child eyes the F4U in this blue tone, shiny and new, was the best plane I’ve ever built and painted thus far! Recklessly I bombed my German Panzers with it :smiley:

Now the question is open if it will be a hangar queen for me or if I join the carnage trail on the Marianas…

second dose of corsair parts coming to unspecified location near you! (being relaxed with the throttle was the key. Don’t ask for too much, she has 2000HP to give)

the torque is pretty ferocious, be gentle with the throttle, apart from that seemed very easy to get into the air


flew around witn mininal controls set… must have missed somthing or been a bit harsh with the engine, and we have an instant glider


was aiming for the trench :grinning:

but was getting a solid 72fps in VR on the new marianas map … far better than the old one

Yes, she will send you whipping around if you aren’t careful.

This ain’t a 172, you don’t need to floor it. A nice slow throttle increase will always benefit you. You can hear throttle inputs on take off:

Firewalling it will be a bad idea, to say the least.

That’s the sort of thing I would do :joy: at least you didn’t blow your own engine, you just damaged a few others :grinning:
