A Kiwi Corsair - Will We See It Again?

Goodyear-built FG-1D Corsair NZ5648 has recently flown again for the first time in six years, and is now undergoing maintenance in order to be able to reach a fully airworthy state ASAP.

As one of only a handful of ex-RNZAF Corsair airframes that remain, many enthusiasts would like to see the aircraft repainted in wartime RNZAF colours. It may well happen.

But in the meantime here's some previously unreleased footage of that same aircraft, flying in RNZAF colours at the Warbirds Over Wanaka 2004 airshow as part of the Breitling Fighters Display Team.
