Poor Corsair. Happened today down under. Also, good music choice, YouTube uploader.

That was a hell of a landing. Barely bent the prop. Now, to get all the mud out of the radiators.....

Yeah, he really feathered it. Wonder if it’ll need an engine rebuild.

The engine was running at the time the props hit the ground. They will need to rebuild the engine. But even if this would have been a ‘dead stick’ landing, they would have rebuilt the engine. This is not a Cessna 152, this is a Million dollar plus airplane.

An aircraft engine encountering “sudden stoppage” always gets torn down.
