Corsair F4U-N

This aircraft was deployed with the US Marines Squadron VMF-513(N) as night fighter support for the UN forces during the Korean conflict. Developed form the earlier Corsair models this Mk was a most effective all-weather fighter, the Squadron adopting the nickname �The Flying Nightmares�. Many missions were flown in support of the B29 bombing missions in 1952 the Corsairs operating out of Pusan West airfield.

Now restored to immaculate condition and flown with great elan at Duxford Legends air days, Red 19 shows off the unique shape of the gull-winged �monster�.

Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight
