This is a unique opportunity to own an actual relic of an FG-1D Corsair Scrappers VBF-80 that was acquired directly from the source and has NEVER been in collectors’ circulation.
This 8” x 10” (20 x 25 cm) historical plaque combines this rare artifact, along with the story of the piece, and a beautifully detailed illustration created by artist Craig Tinder.
This is an actual relic from a WW2 FG-1D Corsair built by Goodyear - Aircraft No. 92095. This aircraft was assigned to the USS Boxer in 1945 with VBF-80 ”Scrappers”.
After WWII, Corsair 92095 was sold to the Salvadorian Air Force (FAS 220). In 1969, FAS 220 participated in the ”100-Hour Football War”. On the second day of the war, FAS 220 attacked a Honduran airfield, suffering a direct hit. The aircraft was retired in 1975 and was later sent back to the United States.
This fragment of aluminum was taken from the American Star under the starboard wing. The panel was removed in 2022 during the aircraft’s restoration back to flying status.
