WE DID IT!

Warbird Heritage Foundation’s Corsair (BuNo 92050) is airworthy again and has taken to the skies.

After an extensive and enduring eight year restoration, Mike Schiffer conducted the first post restoration flight on March 9th, 2021. A special thank you to Sam, Shawn & Charlie at Tab-Air for their dedication. We would also like to acknowledge AirPower Unlimited, Anderson Airmotive, Avionics Place, Ezell Aviation, Max Aero, Tromblay Tool and Chris at ToolWorks.

Most of all, Thank You to all who have served and continue to serve our country. This is a tribute you.

Aircraft will be available for air shows and viewing. Take a look at the history and first flight post restoration photos.
