Damn! That's a rare photo Dave. That's a Night Fighter with the radar on the right wing and twin 20mm cannons in the wings instead of the three .50 cal Brownings.

The Corsair, my favorite fighter plane. Thanks for the pic.

Hell yeah that's a night fighter! That half tear drop shape on the side of the fuselage, just above the mechanics head, is a screen to shield the pilot from the light of the exhaust flame that comes out from behind the engine cowl flaps.

RECIPS RULE!
