    I did not even know there was an F4u in Australia, I would be interested to know its history and how it ended up at Albion Park.

      It has been there for a while and is a staple for what I understand. This Corsair in particular was sold to the Honduran Airforce in 1956 and served there until it was sold to Hollywood Wings in 1979. From there it was sold to the RNZAF Museum and was later traded for their P-40F in the mid-1990s.
      Australia also has what is one of, if not the rarest Corsairs around. BU.82640 which is a Vought Built F4U-1D. Most early Corsairs flying are Goodyear FG-1Ds since there are only two F4U-1Ds left, with the other on display at the Udvar Hazy Center in Virginia. Australia's -1D is the only one flying in the world and just flew for the first time last year. It is a Pacific theater combat veteran as well.
      Both Corsairs are listed for sale on Platinum Fighters...both being $3.5 Million each.

      @@ChizAfterHours interesting History ,I don't know if this plane fought in 1969 Honduras - Salvador War. As a honduran,I appreciate they had restored the whole plane conserving the flags.
