"Every pilot who flew the Corsair loved it"? I thought it had the nick name ensign eliminator.:hmmm:

Impressive plane none the less.

Here is a WWII instruction film for F4U pilots:

Ah, the Corsair is easily my favorite American fighter after the P-39/63

@Schroeder, every pilot that flew the Corsair loved it, every pilot that didn't love it was promptly eliminated

That's true. The rookie pilots didnt understand the huge torgue the engine produced if the throttle was slammed to the fullest at low speeds, which caused the plane to flip over. The one's who learned to fly it, loved it.

After seeing Schroeders excellent clip I went to IL2 1946 and flew the Corsair but, a little diferently.

I recongigured my two throttle quadrants nomally used with yoke for the different levers in video.

Left my X52 alone except for what I could use realisticly.

WOW !!! Tried to follow the tutorial on a separete laptop.

What a handfull. :haha:

I don't need to tell all of you how many mistakes I made.:dead:

The rudder pedals are the only thing I didn't screw up. :D

If you have any other flight related video clips you are welcome to upload them on that site (It's the unofficial video site of the German Sturmovik community but you can post in English as well if you want to.).
