F4U-1 Corsair

Went to Planes of Fame in Chino for their Flying Leathernecks event where they talked about the Corsair. It was a cloudy overcast day which made for some challenging shooting. Here are a few of my shots. C/C welcome.

Great shots! One of my favorite planes, especially when "Super Corsair" is racing at Reno

Nice ones!

I like the shot of the prop.

Good idea!

Good shots. Do I see a 10mm in your cam bag?

Very nice composition, well done in less than ideal lighting.

Great shots! Love those.

Nice shots. Very interesting prespectives on most of the shots.

Great stuff, like the angles.

Love that last fisheye shot! I was looking for a shot that had that characteristic wing of the F4...
Nice!

Maybe one of these days I can make it out there. Thanks.

Yup. Siggy has been seeing the light of day more often. I really love that lens.

I was bummed out as I couldn't get any shots of it flying because of the exposure. By the time I thought I might have it ready the gear was down. Thanks.

I tried working that gullwing into a lot of shots, but I just couldn't make it work. It's a shame as they only bring out the corsair twice a year. They keep it tucked away in a display with the wings folded up.

Great shot of my all time favorite piston powered fighter. The gull wings are beautiful
