Here's something I've been toying with...
now I know next to nothing about Corsairs, but I do know the kiwi's flew a couple.
How does this look to you guys?

Jan , that is brilliant cool.gif .."but I do know the kiwi's flew a couple" biggrin.gif this is one aircraft the RNZAF operated more than any other in its entire history being well over 400 off the type , i have a couple here which are very oddballs , only b/w photos tho but would be easy to work with thumbup1.gif

Here's an update, it seems the RNZAF had roundels on all wings, and I learned that NZ5335 had an 'O' as radiosign.

There were many variations in markings but i could,t find photos showing both the number and letter on the cowl , was one or the other , these aircraft got very worn almost sand blasted very quick when in the Solomon,s with another well known feature of the tape around the nose fuel tank to lessen the fumes .

Hi ya Adrian , this is off the high density ORBX scenery , requires a switch turned on installing the scenery .

I've just uploaded the Corsair on OZx, so it should be available soon.
Let me know what you think?

if you want me to paint it, then yes, that is of use. Any detailed shots of the jolly roger on the cowling and the markings below the cockpit?
