American War Eagles:
F4U Corsair - DVD
Thunder from the Skies.
The Corsair is regarded as one of the greatest warplanes
in history. Designed to fly behind the most powerful
engine and biggest propeller of any fighter in existence,
the prototype was the first U.S. combat aircraft to
exceed 400 mph. Once the U.S. Navy adopted the Corsair
as a ship-board fighter-bomber, they operated in the
Pacific Fleet and established a kill ratio of 11:1
against Japanese aircraft. This is a full-color history
of the Corsair. 52 minutes. |

Battle Stations:
Corsair
- VHS Video
Pacific Warrior. With its bent wings and long nose,
the Corsair was one of the most distinctive planes
of WWII. It was the scourge of Japanese pilots,
capable of diving at more than 500 miles per hour.
But, surprisingly, it assumed its most familiar
role - flying from the decks of U.S. carriers -
three years after it was unveiled. Drawing on color
archival film, detailed computer re-enactments and
interviews with Corsair pilots, this video tells
the story of the legendary aircraft. 50 min. |
