I'm so thankful people take care of these magnificent human masterpieces for the next generations to see (incl. me). This plane is so beautiful and addictive to watch and listen to. I really love it more than so much else in this world!

Not as good a sound as a Spitfire engine though.

I tend to agree with you on your thoughts about the german military design of the day, perhaps with the exeption of military vehicles you know Kübelwagen etc

Абсолютно так брат!

Go to a hobby store and look at the model section. That’s why most of the models are German.

I can't say that about ALL German war machines (some of them are bit overengineered or even ugly), but the whole Bf-109 family is indeed extremely beautiful. Iconic design

If the engineers had been left to design duties instead of trying to fulfill ridiculous demands from above, the war may have been very different...... germany wasnt so much beaten, but it lost the war thanks to incompetent leadership. Too many stupid decisions, too much wasted resources.

Yes so glad

Is this one equipped with the mechanical "kompressor"?

Watched just to hear it. Magnificent.

@@rishz7857 So you confirm the legendary "Kompressor" is on board?

I think all the prop planes from the 2nd World War sounded amazing.

Ahhh, the sound of freedom :)

True

Agree it's nice to see a Buchon get a DB so we've got another Bf-109ish thing flying. But remember, the Buchon was a real fighter plane in it's own right. The merlin gave it an over 5000ft/min climb, something the DB605 could never do.

Well I don't see a Bf 109.... I see a replica with hispano parts and a restored DB 605 constructed by Meier Motors D-FMGS

@@chrissimmonds3734 Does make a nice noise though! Looks sexy as heck too.

@@chrissimmonds3734 without substitute parts,There would be no 109 to fly,Some parts simply no longer exist or if original parts do exist,They will be needed as templates to build a replacement... nobody is going to use 100 percent original parts in a flying restoration many parts are irreplaceable and if they are broken or damaged..that's 'it' they are gone and then there's another 109 on static display or sitting in a museum cordoned off and you can't even get close enough to it to get even a whiff of fuel fumes.

And a great leap beyond the ME- 109 with the ME-262 jet fighter plane with axial compression turbine engines.

Look at the timespan between the Lancaster and the Vulcan.

More from the b17 to the b36 peacemaker

Agreed, also only about 60 years until the SR71, 747, Concorde and landing on the Moon with basic electronics and computer systems!

@@topcat4759 There is a great video on Getting Smarter Every day, I think, about the Saturn V "computer" It wasn't even a computer. It's amazing we got there. Or did we.....

I agree, completely

Same here, I dunno if it's me but a McClaren Mercedes (car) has a sound reminiscent of the 109 when it's at full "chat".

German engineering is still superb when not limited by economic or political considerations.

@@jkoysza1 for example the green party ! :-( or the red !

The USA secretly supplied 100 octane fuel to the RAF just in time for the BoB, enabling the Merlin to run at higher manifold pressure, a distinct advantage.

@@drstrangelove4998 yes but the Merlin was normally aspirated and carbureted not charged and fuel injected like the DB so the higher compression and fuel octane rating was necessary for performance.

Firstly, they could only achieve equal performance by using water/methanol and nitrous oxide injection with limited quantities of high octane fuel. This was on a limited amount of Bf109k. The Mustang equalled it’s performance with a smaller engine while the Spitfire XIV exceeded the k model performance in every way, As for German engineering, did the build a successful heavy bomber? Or a powered gun turret? Did they develop the Cavity Magnetron? Or the Atomic bomb? Nope.

Wait. Attacked by p-51s! I never really considered that. What a story

First flight 1935 first war action Spain 1937...

Yes. It is a tool, that does not know government. It is a bird of prey. Like an eagle, or hawk. Timeless , classic, formidable. It, and the men who flown it are heroes. No matter the the nationality.

@White Knight B1 looks pretty elegant

@White Knight B-17s definitely contest top spot for elegance. Hard to think of anything that has 109 or the 17 beat in the aesthetic regard. Name a more iconic duo...I’ll wait :-p

how did I ever survive being so exhausted? Wie habe ich jemals überlebt, so erschöpft zu sein? (thats Yankee Deutsch)

I'll bet the preflights were that thorough for all the guys that came home - the English Channel doesn't look like a large stretch of water until you encounter a problem halfway across it (I know that would have been Bf109Es, but the point still stands).

Thanks for beeing here

We can afford some more....the whole typelist of our LUFTWAFFE

@@azorean88 are you sure the one in the video is a former Buchon? The video poster said in a different comment it was a '44 original

They always say this to boost the value of the aircraft. The ONLY original Bf 109 to fly since the mid 1950s was the RAFMs Bf 109 G-6/Trop Black 6 ALL the others are converted Buchons or replicas based on very minimal, if any, original airframe parts. But that said the aircraft in the video are superb replications of the original shape and having original DB 605’s the sound compliments the shape and form

@@bf9142ftw after researching again for the same plane, they say its a original Bf109, crashed in Austria on may 1944 and was built in early 1944. Im sorry for my mistake and thank you for the wake up call.

@@azorean88 it is not an original but a data plate replica with newly manufactured airframe with a sourced original engine, undercarriage instruments etc.

My Opinion

Yes it is

Best pilot comment I have seen is that "any time it's rolling you have to remember its doing its best to kill you".

Ya but we're all friends now??

My reaction too. When I saw the video I thought “let’s hope no-one gets killed.

Beauty is something very subjective ... Anyway nice restoration for an efficient fighter despite a sinister reputation. The "truncated" svastika on the tail is questionable, to say the least, especially for a plane registered in Germany. Just my opinion.

@@patolt1628 the swastica is illegal in Germany, but I believe there can be an exception for museum artefacts?

@@drstrangelove4998 should be in my opinion

@@drstrangelove4998 Yes probably: it's indeed illegal except for the purposes of historical representation. It's the grey area ... In my country it's the same: forbidden except for artistic (historical films, etc.) or religious (Hindu Gods bearing the swastika) purposes. In my view it's a problem since this symbol is not only referring to the Nazi regime as such but also to the Holocaust. On another hand I know that, at least for history representation, it's debatable. Not simple

Thanks watching and your comment

Is it still aurworthy ?

Wonder how much a plane like this is worth? $3-4M?

One word. TRAWLERS

Thanks to computer-assisted manufacturing they can now easily produce lost components. In the 1940s they just cranked engine parts out as fast as possible and used whatever metal was available Longevity wasn't an issue because the aircraft would last less than a month in Frontline service

@@jamesricker3997 I was wondering how much could now be made that way, Quite a few years ago I read some articles about a 109 and a Mitsubishi Zero being restored and the restoration folks were scouring the pacific islands and Europe for any parts they could find so an original engine could be rebuilt and fitted to the airframes...they even fished discovered crash sites for usable or repairable crankshafts,blocks, Cylinders and sleeves..I was just amazed they were able to get the planes running

@@jamesricker3997 About a year ago i was reading some translations of daily reports from different Jagde-schwader flight groups and the attitrition of available flightworthy aircraft on a daily basis was pretty dismal . You would read where a group commander would say that they left with 20 someing aircraft and perhaps 11 would be forced to return due to mechanical difficulties. A question was asked as to how many hours before a rebuild was needed and i was astonished @ how low the hours were but I cannot remember ...seems like it was sub 200..or perhaps even less. As to armor it was said that Axis and Allied both required tending to practically daily. Guess we shouldnt be surprised it is after all a very hostile environment and equipment is pushed to the limit.

How did hear the engine of a ME-109?
