According to France Warbirds there is a Corsair under long-term restoration in France. Does anyone have details regarding this one?

There is one other Corsair in "restoration" at La Ferté Alais. It was stored in airworthy condition for years and will be back in the air soon. Unfortunatly not ready yet for the May airshow.
