I suspect with great discomfort! I had the privilege of sitting in a Corsair cockpit and let me tell you at 6' and 200lb it was not something I'd want to do for a couple of hours (I felt much like I'd been packed into a sardine can, and that with the canopy open), and I believe the 109 cockpit was even more cramped. (by contrast the p47 cockpit is like sitting in a Cadillac, all very spacious and comfy)
