Grumman G-58 Bearcat (N7825C)
Shari Heitkotter, the lady ground crewperson of the Commemorative Air Force Southern California Wing's Grumman F8F-2 Bearcat (N7825C), gives the "thumbs up" for engine start to the pilot who is firing up the Bearcat's Pratt & Whitney R-2800-34W "Double Wasp" radial.

Man, I wish still photos had sound so that everyone who views this pic could hear the throaty cough as the CAFSCW's Bearcat's powerplant windmilled ever so briefly and then, with a deep and satisfying growl at the instant seen in this snap, caught and raced up to a roar. The sound of aviation - pure music!
N7825C - Is reg to a Grumman F8F-2 (G-58) Bearcat Constructed as a F8F-2P.
