DONE: F4F-4 Wildcat "13", VF-3, W. N. Leonard, USS Yorktown, Battle of Midway, GB - Page 4 - Aircraft of World War II

Looking good old boy. I've got a pic of O'Hare (after whom the airport was named) sitting in the cockpit of that thing, the one that's so ugly they had to name it twice. F4 F4 - sounds like a stuttering swear word!
Anyway, think I might have some more pics of him and his Wildcat, if I can find them.

She has the beauty of the Spit and the Jaguar E-Type....

I might have to change your single malt whisky to blended imported whisky, Mate!

Now that's being nasty! Tell you what, I'll buy you a new pair of glasses, so that you can see the thing properly. I think you've inhaled to many paint fumes or something, it's affected your vision and sense of clean lined beauty!

You tell him Chris! He doesn't see the timeless and classic lines of a thoroughbred like the Wildcat....
