SapperSix Posted February 9, 2019 Posted February 9, 2019 John, I do truly enjoy your well done, well thought out builds. This build was nothing less than excellent. There is a few corsairs in my future. I assure you I will be looking at many of your builds as my template. I look forward to your next corsair build and have also enjoyed your P-47 and -40 builds -Frank 3

JohnB Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 Thanks Martin. It's coming right along. 4
Peterpools Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 John Incredible progress and you have the Tamiya Corsaurs down to a science. Looking mighty good and glad the wings are lowered. Besides the in the raised position, breaking the spar is easy to do, it’s a pain air brushing the fuselage around them. Keep ‘em comin Peter 5
JohnB Posted February 19, 2019 Author Posted February 19, 2019 Thanks Peter. The big plus for having the wings folded is it saves display space. I folded the wings on 3 of my previous builds but decided not to on this one as you rarely saw the ground based a/c with their wings folded. 3
Peterpools Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 John Completely agree and on my next Corsair, yes there will be a third, the wings will be down and locked. Peter 3

Peter Glad to see there will be a third. They are like potato chips. You can't eat/build just one! LOL 2
Peterpools Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Hi John Right with you Keep ‘em comin Peter 4
BlrwestSiR Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 Nice progress John. I've yet to build one with the wings folded but there will have to be at least one that way. Carl 3
