Originally posted by kotrenin Alright, I did some research in my Illustrated encyclopedia of millitary aircraft, and I believe the plane flying with the tigercat is the bearcat. It was hard to see details in the video but the plane definatley had a bubble canopy which the bearcat had. The hellcat and wildcat both had canopies that flowed into the fusalage.
