Acording to the perspective way larger than the Bearcat and even the
Panther and Cougar

I think ints correct distance shold be that of the Tiger.

Or was this bird so large?

Was it in service long? I remember one of these on the catapult display
of the USS Intrepid in New York Harbor. Long time ago.............


Bruce,

Take a look at the Wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F11F.

I can remember as a yoot of about 11 seeing the Blues in their Tigers over
Lake Washington during the Seattle SeaFair.

Sure wish I'd had a camera and a clue...

Oh, well. At least I now have a camera.
