ex BuNo 153173. In May 1995 an out of area TLP took place at Gilze Rijen AB. This nice Corsair of Esq304 participated in the exercise. The aircraft crashed only months after this picture was made. It came down after an engine failure near Beja, Portugal on 25 July 1995. Pilot ejected safely but the A-P was completely destroyed.
