Title: NEEDED: F4U-4 WW2 photo's
Post by: Mus51 on November 16, 2007, 05:54:22 PM
Hey guys, i found out we only got 1 F4U-4 skin, we might add some but i never found photo's from WW2 from F4U-4's on the net.

If someone could upload some pictures with some details it would be nice.

Thanks in advance

I think he meant get some more historical skins in game.
And he is asking for resources.

Have you searched http://www.airliners.net?   I just spent some time looking out there and there are lots of photos of F4U-4s.   Problem is, many are post-war - anytime you see a red-stripe through the Star and Bar, its a post war bird.

I guess they were used quite a but in the Korean War.

Books are your friend.

I've got about half a dozen Corsair books, but WW2 F4U-4 pics are very rare. The only good photo I found was the one I used for the default skin.

Most of the F4U-4 warbirds on sites like airliners are done in Korean war colours, probably because they are much more interesting schemes.

Hey guys thanks for the reply's, like Greebo said they would be pretty boring.

Looks like were good with only 2 skins then.

What about Walsh's -4? Fairly interesting, with the kill board partially covering the fuselage number.
