He was a fortunate one, usually WW2 airbird accidents don't go that well for the pilot...

hock:

Glad he got out, and hope he wasn't injured.

I hate to see and hate it when WW2 airbirds crash, Because there are limited amounts

but at least the pilot can fly again

glad for the pilot that survives, and the smoke and fire are quite close that we have in game, even the smoke balls.

This is very old news. The aircraft in question was a Corsair built up from pieces and parts of several Corsairs that happened to be owned by the Planes of Fame. If I recall correctly, the fuselage was believed to be an early F4U-1, but this aircraft ended up being a mix of old and custom built parts. It was powered by a P&W R-4360 and first flew in 1985. This was not built to be a restored aircraft, but a pure racing aircraft. The crash was caused by the failure of the engine's master connecting rod. This crash took place in 1994.
