I'd love to see her and race 57 flying together.

Wow! Another Super Corsair. Would be nice to see both race at Reno again.

Re: Race #74 getting closer to flight...

Hey is this a different Corsair or is this race 57 rebuilt? Was just wondering because I havent seen Race 57 at Reno for the last two years I think. It will be cool to see another 4360 powered Corsair again!

Race 57 was sold to a Ron Pratt in Arizona.

I never thought I would see one F-2G fly, let alone Two!

Thank you Bob and Crew,

And then some more..........


Sorry for two posts, you can only have 30 images on a post. I figured this news was worth at least 60 beerchugs so......

Amazing. To think I saw both of those fly in the Cleveland Air Races as a teenager & to see both of them flying again . A great tribute to all that have brought them back to life. Not enough room to put up all the beer chugs deserved. & thousands more,

4,360 to be exact, eh? (Sorry, couldn't resist)
