Just one problem.....the Bf-109 fought in Europe and the Corsair fought in the Pacific.

This is not a american corsair look closely at the markings The Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm (RNFAA) had been operating Corsairs obtained via Lend Lease since November 1943, having to clip eight inches off of each wing to fit them into the smaller British carrier hangar decks with wings folded. The only major combat engagement by Corsairs in Europe came on April 3, 1944, when RNFAA Corsairs from HMS Victorious escorted bombers which attacked the German battleship Tirpitz in Norwegian waters.

Looks to me like the Corsair was "photo-shopped" into the pic of the Me109. And badly, by the look of the surrounding clouds...

I'm sure it was 'shopped in (pixeling quite bad in the upper corner). But corsairs did fly against the tirpitz (1943?). It did see limited service in N Atlantic.
