Grumman TBF Avenger crash landing on USS Essex [Colorized & Enhanced]

Grumman TBF Avenger crash landing on USS Essex in 1945.
The Grumman TBF Avenger (designated TBM for aircraft manufactured by General Motors) is an American World War II-era torpedo bomber developed initially for the United States Navy and Marine Corps, and eventually used by several air and naval aviation services around the world.
The Avenger entered U.S. service in 1942, and first saw action during the Battle of Midway.
Despite the loss of five of the six Avengers on its combat debut, it survived in service to become the most effective and widely-used torpedo bomber of World War II, sharing credit for sinking the super-battleships Yamato and Musashi (the only ships of that type sunk exclusively by American aircraft while under way) and being credited for sinking 30 submarines. Greatly modified after the war, it remained in use until the 1960s.

Man he came in perfect. We took people who were just getting introduced to aircraft, the improvements over the 6 years was staggering. Just think. You’re born and airplanes are nothing. Your 18 off to war barley knowing what an aircraft is. They put them in these monsters and man it’s crazy how great all pilots were. Taking to a machine that was just recently invented. Crazy stuff.

Ciao Matty dovrei caricarlo il prossimo venerdì! Ma credo senza colorazione... non viene bene. Ma il resto sarà modificato per aumentarne la qualità "Stay tuned" come si dice)
