This painting depicts VF-17 Jolly Rogers commanding officer LCDR
Tommy Blackburn in his "Big Hog" F4U Corsair, circa late November
1943.  Sporting beards in many cases, and known for their
aggressiveness, "Blackburn's Irregulars", as the pilots of VF-17 were
known in certain quarters, actually played a large role during their own
training period in preparing the Corsair for fleet-wide use.  Eliminating
the F4U's tendency to "bounce" during carrier landings and taming
the plane's nasty stall characteristics were two important VF-17
technical innovations.

They didn't do so bad once they entered combat, either, scoring a
record 152 victories in only 76 days of combat during the Solomons
campaign.
