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.
