Title: Broke both wings & landed
Post by: Rob52240 on March 01, 2012, 03:49:56 AM: After realizing the difference between the F4U1 and the F4U1A I learned that it is possible to fly and land with both wings broken. :banana:

Nice!

Was that full flaps or what?

Thing looked like it was flying fine with 2 busted wings!
