Everyone thinks it's an F4U-4. It probably would have helped if I'd put
these fotos up at the same time that I posted the first one.
The fuselage marking reads VMA-212. If I lighten the engine so it's really
visible the markings on the fuselage disappear.

What you see on the ground next to this aircraft is one of the wings of the
PBM they now have in the restoration hangar.

Right now it's pouring rain here and we are so happy. We've been in a
drought for about eighteen months and every drop of rain is precious. We
went to the beach this morning and the water was crystal clear. It, the
water that is, was about 32.2C or 90F. I'm just hangin' around the house
waiting for the next Blue Angel practice session, Tom
