Swing with the wing!

Nice work there Charlie. You have MADD metal working skills.

There ought to be charters for the whole boat from works like that.

Amazing work, Charlie. Thanks for sharing the pics!

Wow I wish I had a project like that; looks like a lot of clecos and rivet bucking. The corsair is totally awesome, the sound of a radial it doesn't get much better. How does she fly? I have read that you had to be respectful to them due to the reverse gull wing and the huge prop.

Thanks guys..

Preserving aviation history makes work less of a grind.. but it's still a lot of work.

OutofControl.. The CAF makes all of their Air Show Pilots fly a T-6 Trainer for a long period before they get to fly the Corsair or P-40.. I personally only Bend Aviation Tin so I can't speak of the flight characteristics??

The Texas Commemerative Air Force / CAF WWII T-6 Trainer showed up at the G-Ville hangar Wednesday so I got you some shots of her.
