LE CORSAIR
Trente ans de Flibuste, 1940-1970
FRENCH VERSION
Every fan of aviation history knows the planes of Greg « Pappy » Boyington or Ira Kepford, but who can claim to have seen every Super Corsair of the Reno races, or any Argentine Corsair, or the New-Zealand Air Arm fighters ? The biggest radial engine ever mounted into a single seat carrier-borne fighter, the unforgettable inverted seagull wings, such a melodious song that the Japanese nicknamed it ‘the whistling Death ’... The Corsair deserved a master treatment. Bruno Pautigny, one of today’s top aviation artists, achieved the challenge. Over 150 profiles, dozens of technical plates, unseeen photograhs, all the ingredients are gathered in this beautiful book.
