As a young officer I served with several, dare I say "mature", FAA officers who had flown Corsairs in carriers with the British Pacific Fleet in the latter stages of the war in the Pacific.
Without exception they all thoroughly enjoyed their Corsair time, not least since they had come to grips with the special technique required for landing on with the extended nose from their previous experience, and they also greatly appreciated the additional strength afforded to the aircraft by the inverted seagull wings.
As Brian Abraham states, the eventual paintwork scheme was a very distinctive dark blue, much as subsequently used with FAA Skyraiders.
