Hello Mark,
The name stenciled on the side of the aircraft is "J. Clyman". I don't know if that is the pilot who flew this Corsair in WWII, though in the interest of historical accuracy, it may very well be. Much attention to detail has gone into restoring this plane. I think you would agree that it's highly unlikely that the original pilot is at the controls in the photo. I have other images of this plane in my portfolio if you're interested. Thanks for your comments.

Our principal in junior high in 1973 flew a Corsair in WWII. His name was Mr. Amerine. This one you photographed has 16 kills. Who was the pilot?
