With its characteristic gull wing and giant 18-cylinder Double Wasp engine, it proved a superb fighter in the Pacific Theater and achieved victory ratio approaching 11 to 1. The exploits of the famed Black Sheep Squadron of Corsairs was recounted by their leader, Marine fighter ace Major Gregory \"Pappy\" Boyington, in the book \"Baa Baa Black Sheep.\" This Flight Operating Instructions manual taught pilots everything they needed to know before climbing into the cockpit. Originally classified \"Restricted\", the manual was declassified long ago and is here reprinted in book form. This revised version includes an original assembly breakdown manual as an appendix.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e United States Navy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1940453380\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781940453385\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Periscope Film LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 98\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 8.00w x 0.25d","brand":"United States Navy","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44043660230911,"sku":"9781940453385","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ff59b2b-dc58-4049-94d0-d593c9203cb8.jpg?v=1684968427","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vought-f4u-4-corsair-pilots-flight-united-states-navy-9781940453385","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
