I had the very good fortune to experience first hand what it might have felt like as a waist gunner , on board a B-17 , Flying Fortress named " Sentimental Journey " a few years back . It gave me a tiny sense of what these brave young men & women endured during bombing missions . Aviation history is simply fascinating , thanks for the share , great vid !!!

THIS -190 is a replica built in the late 2000s by Flug+Werk in Germany. The engine is a P&W R-2800 on a special mount. Hence the slightly "odd" appearance of the cowling because it is larger than the original BMW, as well as the Chinese engines used in other Flug+Werk -190s.

At the 2:17 time mark with yellow cockpit ID letters "CD" is "Betsy's Biscuit Bomber", an all original C-47B built in 1943. It was flown from Paso Robles California making whistle stops along the way over a months time. It flew to Duxford England, coming by way of the Greenland route. The aircraft is part of the Estrella Warbirds Museum collection here in Paso Robles California USA. This aircraft's last U.S. missions were flying the Berlin Airlift, it was sold to Israel and was later purchased back from the Israeli Air Force and refurbished/preserved. There is a hand painted Hebrew language sign on the lavatory door that roughly translates to, "The only replacement for a Dakota, is another Dakota". The plane was a military transport it's whole life and never converted for civilian use. It still has all of it's original equipment to include flight controls, radios, navigator gear, paratrooper jump seats, the large desert sand shields atop each engine nacelles and the gear used for towing combat gliders in Europe during WWII.

My dad was in RAF Bomber Command in the Far East in WW2. For a time he had an American pilot who fortunately had been a Barn Storming pilot in the 30s. One day they couldn't land the Hudson at the aerodrome, so were forced to pancake into the Selaper(?) River with my dad still signalling on the radio. Two guys climbed into the life raft and were spun away down river. Dad and the Yank dived into the river and swam to the shore where they were met by three or four Ghandi lookalikes, who, very politely, insisted on holding umbrellas over the heads of these sodden airmen as they escorted them to the railway station. En route they told them that the river was full of crocodiles! Oh, the other two guys were picked up later. Love to hear the old propellors - always rush out of doors to watch our Battle of Britain Memorial Flight when I hear those engines.

The "Mustang" w/ the allison engine is I believe an A36 formerly of the Champlin collection.

During the Mustang Mk. I's successful combat initiation, North American's president Howard "Dutch" Kindelberger pressed the newly redesignated U.S. Army Air Forces (USAAF) for a fighter contract for the essentially similar P-51, 93 of which had passed into the USAAF when the Lend-Lease contract with Britain ran out of funds. The Mustang IA/P-51 used four 20 mm Hispano wing cannon in place of the original armament, a combination of four wing-mounted .30 caliber (7.62 mm) M1919 Browning machine guns and four .50 caliber (12.7 mm) M2 Browning machine guns, two of which were mounted in the wings, while the second pair was mounted in the "chin", or lower engine cowling, and synchronized to fire through the propeller. No funds were available for new fighter contracts in fiscal year 1942, but General Oliver P. Echols and Fighter Project Officer Benjamin S. Kelsey[4] wanted to ensure that the P-51 remained in production.[5] Since appropriations were available for an attack aircraft, Echols specified modifications to the P-51 to turn it into a dive bomber. The contract for 500 A-36A aircraft fitted with bomb racks, dive brakes, and heavier-duty wing, was signed by Kelsey on 16 April 1942,[6] even before the first flight of the first production P-51 in May 1942.[7] With orders on the books, North American Aviation (NAA) began modifying the P-51 to accept the bomb shackles which had already been tested in a "long-range ferry" program that the RAF had stipulated.[8] Engineering studies totaling 40,000 hours and wind tunnel testing with a ⅛-scale model were completed in June 1942. Utilizing the basic P-51 airframe and Allison engine, structural reinforcing "beefed up" several high stress areas and "a set of hydraulically operated dive brakes were installed in each main wing plane".[9] Due to the slightly inboard placement of the bomb racks and unique installation of four cast aluminum dive brakes, a complete redesign of the P-51 wing was required.[6] A-36A production line at NAA Inglewood, October 1942. The first A-36A (42-83663) was rolled out of the NAA Inglewood plant in September 1942, rapidly going through flight testing with the first flight in October, with deliveries commencing soon after of the first production machines. The A-36A continued the use of nose-mounted .50 in (12.7 mm) machine guns along with wing armament of four .50 in (12.7 mm) caliber machine guns. The USAAF envisaged that the dive bomber would operate mainly at altitudes below 12,000 ft (3,658 m) and specified the use of a sea level-rated Allison V-1710-87, driving a 10 ft 9 in (3.28 m)-diameter three bladed Curtiss-Electric propeller and delivering 1,325 hp (988 kW) at 3,000 ft (914 m).[10] The main air scoop inlet was redesigned to become a fixed unit with a larger opening, replacing the earlier scoop which could be lowered into the airstream. In addition the A-36 carburetor air intake was later fitted with a tropical air filter to stop sand and grit being ingested into the engine.[6][11] The USAAF later ordered 310 P-51As, which were essentially A-36s without the dive-brakes and nose mounted weapons, leaving an armament of four wing-mounted 0.50 in (12.7 mm) Browning machine guns.[12] An Allison V-1710-81 1,200 hp (895 kW) was fitted and used the same radiator and air intake as the A-36A. The P-51A was still fitted with bomb racks although it was not intended to be used primarily as a fighter-bomber and the racks were mainly used to carry drop tanks.[12][13] Operational history

c.200 of those complete 20mm wing gun "kits" were stored away at Dayton. Remembered by crew chiefs in Korea/Japan from 1950< Serepticiously transported as "Parts" to those sites... THIS after seeing how well NAVY Skyraider 20s were received by N.Korean and Red Chinese troops and tanks! Over even EIGHT .50s of the Jugs in combat, there... SPADS were still prized in Vietnam The A-10 of that war! 20 Mike Mike is still a top choice, today! J.C.

Than you! When I was a kid (1955) the FLA ANG was still flying "D's" Ocala Forest and Bombing Range... We were running a GoKart at the the abandoned USAAF Henderson Field (USF now) when one came in with oil all over the canopy. We offered up our can of gas and some rags to the pilot who was also having a radio problem.. He then opened up the cowling and found an oil line that was loose... My Dad's good old Crescent wrench saved the day... Still in my Craftsman toolbox, today.... I hope he made it home home Ok.. Last time I was there (1981) it was a RC airplane and car park... Right across from Jackson Faspray Dishwashers... The big concrete area up the street was everybody's skid pad... I should look at Google Maps... CAVU J.C.

I use to run to the local mini mart back in the 70s as a kid and buy those balsa planes and for what, 50 cents, a little more for the biplane, and had a great time until it eventually ended up in a high tree. I can only imagine taking part in something like this. I mean where do you go from here? I would say "You won."

Amazing how much quieter the P-38’s are a than all the rest. Of course because their turbos were exhaust driven, that muffled the sound quite a bit. Especially compared to the radial engined, supercharged FW-190 and even the supercharged P-51’s!

Yes, the sounds of war are very frighting. So lets enjoy and honour them all ole warbirds. I respect every pilot with flight them, for every air forces.

I know an old Farmer from Austrian/Europe who built a replica of an Arado 96 Trainer from WWII but I didn't know that there is a original still airworthy.

@@FiveCentsPlease You are right. Because of the nose of the propeller I was sure it is an Arado 96. But the propeller, the engine and the concept is from the Arado 96. It was built in Switzerland and used till 1980 in theyr airforce as trainer.

There is a 190 in New Zealand. It crashed on landing at the Classic Fighters Omaka 2015 air show - it ground looped and wiped the undercarriage off and damaged the engine when the prop hit the ground. It went into the repair shop at Omaka and was back in the air for this year's CFO. It's a great sight and sound when it's up and flying.
