WOW! What a beauty! This aircraft has a special place in my heart. I am 76 years old, and have had a lifelong affair with aviation (26 years in the USAF, private pilot). My very first model airplane back in the 1950's, was an Aurora F6F Hellcat! It is such a pleasure to see this beautiful model fly! Thanks for sharing this moment with others!

@Jim Goose my excuse for that is my eyesight would not pass a aviation medical. But I fly RC aircraft. Largest has a five foot wingspan. Which is difficult to transport about. A trailer is one option. My other is buy an old Transit. Pondering both at the moment. Here in the uk we have from memory a 7 .5kg weight limit. That Hellcat is a great model flown well.

You have got to go to a museum and see the real deal. They are amazing. I saw one at the Moody Gardens Air Museum in Galveston. Some air shows have them and if you get there before the start of the show they usually let you see the planes up close and talk to the owner. I think it's a great learning experience and I hope you get to see one someday.
