I would guess that there are more flying Corsairs today than there were
then, due to various restoration project coming to fruition. In today's
high dollar warbird scene, it is economically feasable to restore (or
remanufacture) projects that were not viable projects 10 or 20 years ago.


Aha. I saw the Dec. '04 date on the video and assumed it was recent.
Interesting point about the viability of warbird restorations KB. I
never thought of that.
