The Corsair i wanna build is this one. From what i was told he is a Australian pilot who fly for Newzeland. He started of with Canadan air force as it was easier to obtain a pilots licence walk in walk out i was told. Alot of the pilots who didnt pass the pilots test obtained there licsences over seas then came back to Australia. Lt d.j. Sheppard become a fighter ace fast soon found him self in Newzeland.
