It was so fun flying our F6 Hellcat together with @trieditathomeofficial Zero. It was like watching the Battle of Midway right there at FliteFest! #flitefest2019 #flitetest #flitefest #foamboard #modelairplanes #rc #airplanes #rcaddict @flitetest @readi.board #edgewaterairpark #f6f #hellcat #f6fhellcat #a6mzero #zero

The Grumman F6F Hellcat is an American carrier-based fighter aircraft of World War II. Designed to replace the earlier F4F Wildcat and to counter the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero, it was the United States Navy's dominant fighter in the second half of the Pacific War. The Hellcat competed with the faster Vought F4U Corsair for that role and prevailed, as the Corsair had significant issues with carrier landings. The Corsair, instead, was primarily deployed to great effect in land-based use by the U.S. Marine Corps.

My friend Corsair Nut was in town a while back and he brought his newly acquired Yellow Aircraft Zero. The airplane really looked good and needless to say, he flew it extremely well! I've always had a soft spot for the zero (was my first scale build). It's too bad you can't get the yellow AC kits anymore, they made some great warbirds.

From the same photoshoot as yesterday's Corsair photo, here's the Planes of Fame Air Museum Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero with what was, at the time in 2016, a brand new paint job after a year long re-restoration, over Chino HIlls, CA. Johnny Maloney at the controls.
