Dan,

This Corsair was lost on 2Aug1991 when Art Vance bailed out at low altitude following engine failure and fire. His letter from the accident report is an interesting read. I can e-mail you and others interested a scanned copy of the letter.

Photos of the aircraft before the accident are at the link below.
