Pacific Legends take to the skies in Gatineau
Louis Horschel’s Corsair shipped from the U.S. to New Zealand on April 29, 1945 aboard the USS Benjamin William and served with the No. 14 and No.17 squadrons. She was rescued from the Rukuhia aircraft graveyard in 1972. With a few spare parts from other planes, today she flies beautifully.
