BIG Engine!! Corsair!

From Facebook:

Gary Schales:
Pratt & Whitney R-4360 Wasp Major 28 cylinder engine. Only around 100 of these F2G "Super" Corsair were manufactured. I was told this aircraft and paint scheme has a history with the Cleveland races which is a predecessor to the Reno air races of today.

Um... WUT!?!?!?!?

It's an awesome plane. Air and Space magazine did an article on one of those a few years ago, and it's quite an engine.

I had seen a Giant Scale kit some time ago, but can't find it now.
