Stbd side view of Keith Skilling in Goodyear FG-1D Corsair ZK-COR, during take-off for a flying display at Warbirds Over Wanaka (WOW) 2010. The sequential retraction of the MLG struts is clearly visible in this view. The long nose and 'gull wings' of the Corsair are also distinctive. This aircraft type featured in a 1970s television series called 'Baa Baa Blacksheep'/ 'Black Sheep Squadron'. The WWII US Marine Corps Corsair unit - VMF-214, led by Major Gregory 'Pappy' Boyington, was based at Espirito Santo (in the modern day nation of Vanuatu.)
