Captured F4U-1a Greman

I found the above image along with this paragraph at http://www.fleetairarmarchive.net <br />Corsair JT404 of 1841 squadron. Involved in anti-submarine patrol from HMS Formidable reroute to Scapa after Operation Mascot against the German Battleship Tirpitz, in company with Barracuda of Wing Leader Lt Cdr RS Baker-Falkner. Emergency landing in a field at Sorvag, Hameroy, near Bodo, Norway on 18 July 1944. The pilot Lt Mattholie taken POW and the aircraft captured intact with no damage. The German authorities made attempts to get the pilot to explain how to fold the wings so as to transport the aircraft to Narvik. Aircraft was ferried by boat for further investigation. It is not known if the Corsair was taken to Germany. This was probably the first Corsair captured by the Germans. Aircraft is listed at Rechlin for 1944 under repair. <br />This is an Artists rendition of what the captured F4U-1a may have looked like, NOT an Actual historical skin. <br />This file contains the clean skin file, and the damage model file.
