BEST Mustang/Spitfire video I have seen! REALLY

[wompus]

MERLINS...what a sweet sound


Ive seen lots of these, but this is OUTSTANDING....it loaded a
little slow, so I waited and watched the whole thing with Full screen and SPEAKERS up. Enjoy..



Taken at Duxford RAF and USAAC Museum in England. Two of the greatest
WWII fighter planes
of their era....the American P51 Mustang and the British Supermarine Spitfire.
Both planes were powered by the powerful Rolls Royce Merlin
engine......which emitted that wonderful
sound that became known to many as 'The Sound of Freedom' during the 1940s.
Such memories for those of us who were around at the time. P-51
pilot does a great job staying in his
position as he has more power and is faster than the Spitfire. They
must have done a bit of practicing.

The only thing missing is the sound of the 50 cals firing.....

Prety cool video Mike. I really like the sound as they fly by.

Beautiful. Makes me a little sorry I wasn't around at a time when you might have seen and heard a whole squdron of mustangs overhead. Although I do remember low flying jets and sonic booms.

Awesome sound, great video clip. They know their machines. Have a great day. Dennis

The P-51 is an awesome machine. It is always inspiring seeing and hearing them fly by.

That was great, I had both of those planes as control line models when I was a kid, and a P40 Warhawk.
There is a fantastic air show every year in Osh Kosh Wisconsin that has a lot of vintage warplanes doing demonstrations.

Mike, thanks for posting, I enjoyed that... ;)
I had a P51 Mustang when I was about 11. Never got the lines right. Had it for years. I must have given it away at some point because I haven't seen it in a long while.
