Outstanding look inside the cockpit of the greatest Marine fighter ever!
If you're a fan like I am of "Baa Baa Blacksheep" then you have to have this book! It shows you everything you'd ever need to know about how to fly the Corsair, and wow is it interesting. This is an original World War II training manual. Despite that, it's not a hard read but a really easy to study book -- probably those kids flying these planes back in the War could...

Vought F4U-4 Corsair Flight Operating Instructions
This is a newsprint style reproduction of the April 1945 Pilot's manual. The picture of an F4U-1 on the cover is misleading. The text is the F4U-4 manual. The illustrations will be helpful for historians and model builders. The operating instructions answered some procedural questions I had about the accuracy of some made for TV scenes I had viewed.

This is an original World War II training manual. Despite that, it's not a hard read but a really easy to study book -- probably those kids flying these planes back in the War could not be expected to read anything BUT something entertaining! Anyway this is a must-have if you are a modeler or enthusiast. I can't wait to take this to the air museum with me and show off to the docents! They'll think I actually flew this plane.

Really really cool WWII era flight manual,
By Mark Clark "Seeadler" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Vought F4U-4 Corsair Fighter Pilot's Flight Manual (Paperback)
This is an actual flight manual, the type used by pilot's in WWII. It's really amazing to read about how to handle in-flight emergencies, forced landings, not to mention just how to land this bird. If you ever flew one of these in Microsoft Flight Simulator, and you've wanted to know more about the nuts and bolts of what it's like to fly one of these amazing craft, this is IT!!
