For anyone interested in this beautiful aircraft.
The History Channel is screening the following new documentary under it's Battle Stations series, titled, Corsair: Pacific Warriors.
The film crew spent some days at the Dallas-Fort Wing base of the CAF's Corsair ( Lancaster airport ), last June, filming many scenes for the programme, with principal Corsair display pilot, Chris Avery, at the controls, in full WWII flying gear. As always, Chris performed at his very best.
The show will feature much footage of this particular bent-wing bird, in the new VMF-312 livery that she sported from April 2001.
It is due to screen on the History Channel in the U.S. this coming Saturday 23rd February. Not sure about times for the U.K.
