You may like warbirds or not, but this video is awesome.
Theย Vought F4U Corsairย is probably one of the most famous American fighter planes ever.

More than 12,500 examples of this aircraft were manufactured by Vought beginning in 1940, with final delivery of 1953, in what is known as the longest production run of any piston-engined fighter in U.S. history.

The Corsair, designed to operate from the flight deck of U.S. aircraft carriers, sawย service during the WWII, during which it initially mainly operated from land bases in the hands of U.S. Marine pilots because of issues with carrier landings: once these were solved, the F4U became the most capable carrier-based fighter-bomber of theย conflict.

The Corsair flew also during the Korean War.

As mentioned before, it is one of the most famous warbirds ever: even my son knows this plane very well as its fame was boosted amoung younger generations by its participation in the Disney movie โ€œPlanesโ€ that features a Corsair named โ€œSkipperโ€ among the leading characters.

The following video shows a civilian registered F4U-1 (NX83782),ย the oldest airworthy Corsair in the world, during the 2012 Planes of Fame Air Show fly by.
