That is correct. Photo taken by me at the Shearwater Aviation Museum, Dartmouth Nova Scotia.

The beast PM'd me to fill in for him as he's out of town for the day: it is an airplane.

YOU GOT IT! By the power invested in me: over to you! My authorization to adjudicate:

Hello, Aktung


It is my turn on the Who/What/Where game and I posted this picture.

Problem is, I will be out of town until 7/5/2020, and I won't be able to answer anyone's questions.

So, I am asking you if you can take my turn and use the image I posted and answer the questions that are related to my picture.

https://sierrahotel.net/blogs/news/wrong-carrier

The above is a little background on what the picture is.

It is an F2H-Banshee that landed on the wrong carrier. It is from the carrier USS Coral Sea and it landed on the USS Wasp.

Here is the original picture:

I first thought of a Grumman F9F Panther and "The Bridges of Toko Ri", but the rear canopy did not fit. Then i saw that in the film they were flying with Banshees as exchange or vice versa(?), so i was not entirely wrong and the rear canopy fitted the photo. Next i looked for "McDonnell Banshees" and "chalk"

I guess it was sheer luck you could not partake this time
