To Anonymous above:
I did not add this photograph to the Database but I provided the caption information about the F4F-3 Wildcats and, of course, you are completely correct. F4F-3s had fixed wings and Wildcats with folding wings were introduced with the F4F-4. The caption has been updated and thank you for offering this correction.
