An interesting photo of F4U-1D NZ5420, of No.3 Servicing Unit, Jacquinot Bay, 1945. Gloss Sea Blue all overall but note that at least the first two Corsairs in this line-up have lighter coloured cowlings (Yellow?). The yellow "last two" and white propeller cuffs (some aircraft had white spinners too) marked the development of No.3 SU's markings.
