The Corsair, a grand old airplane. It could hold its own with the best of 'em. Including the Mustang. Check out the following link on the best fighter-bomber of WW2.

Thanks for posting the photo. I had a gas powered plastic Cox model when I was a kid. Flew so fast I'd get dizzy and wreck it! Built a balsa and paper model from a kit once. Shellacked it and put on decals. Worked on it for weeks. It came out looking great but wouldn't fly for shit. Too much shellac, I guess. Beautiful plane.
