[Good Vibs]

Thanks for not having any needless unnecessary background music!
One sees that Grumman got it right after the Wildcat & Hellcat.
What year is the video?

Dito for the music!

Most of it was shot in 2014, just got round to editing it a couple of days ago.

Many thanks Mauld, another wonderful aeroplane that would grace my fantasy hangar. Along with a Tigercat.

Here's the early days in the UK when the late, great Stefan Karwowski would display her. His very first display at Biggin Hill in 1982 after just a short practice was remarkable. Location here looks like West Malling?
