Grumman F8F Bearcat, piston fighter, Reg. N800H, Serial No. D.1126, Code No. NX800H / 106A, close-up pilot view, air-to-air, Erickson Airshow Collection 2025

This close-up pilot view of the Grumman F8F Bearcat, registration N800H, serial D.1126, code NX800H/106A, shows the single-seat cockpit and bubble canopy. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp radial engine, the aircraft was designed for fast climb rates, high maneuverability, and carrier-based operations. Preserved as a warbird, it participates in air-to-air demonstrations at airshows, illustrating historical piston fighter design, performance, and agility from the late World War II era.
