Thinking of starting this as a dedication build to Jessie Brown . Jessie and his Wingman Tom Hudner were truly great Aviators in a forgotten war .  |

Not to be a nit pick but Brown & Hudner flew F4U-4s. I'm doing Hudners plane when I get to it with 1/48 HobbyBoss F4U-4B and cutting edge ( CED48268 ) corsair part 1 that has both Hudners & Browns markings - plus a couple other.
The biggest visual differences I'm aware of is the cowling and a 4 blade prop vs 3.
BTW I've got the book Devotion and have seen the movie a dozen times. Great bearcat footage.
