    I recognize that Thunderbolt. That's the one formerly known as _Spirit of Atlantic City, NJ_ , and she resides at the Planes of Fame Air Museum in Chino, California. What makes this P-47 special is that it was built, not by Republic Aviation, but by Curtiss-Wright under license, and given the designation of *P-47G* , which were relegated to stateside USAAF training squadrons, due to the G variant's inferior armor compared to Republic's more ruggedly built versions, such as the P-47D and the later P-47N.

    An awesome aircraft. One that was designed around the huge Pratt and Whitney radial engine. It's unfortunate that the other plane started its engine shortly before the P47 started its engine. Still a good video. Thank you for this.

    Her eight .50 cal machine guns gave the plane some real presence over the enemy, I bet the P-47 used to shred Me109's into confetti.

    Like in 1944 - Thunderbolt is clearing the path for Mustang.
    BTW - P-51 looks here a bit like a fancy groopie for a heavy weight boxer. ;)

      @TheAttacker732 2 года назад

      Well, the Jug was almost half again as heavy as the Mustang... 10,000lbs empty/17,500lbs max takeoff vs 7,635lbs empty/12,100lbs max takeoff.
      Plus, the Jug is *still* big compared to most single-piston-engine aircraft.

    there was only 1 Jug...Bobby Johnson said there was not a fighter plane in the entire ETO inventory that could hang with his Thunderbolts paddleblade propeller in a zoom climb including even the legendary Spitfire, oh and a great view of the rear exhaust of the 51s jetlike radiator system that added 40-mph to its top speed.

    The flyover path got altered flying in northwest towards Cypress over Hwy 249. 100's of viewers were disappointed. We expected the flyover to cross from the southeast over 249 @ Cypresswood. Instead we could barely see them as they flew from the south far west of us. Then we saw the reason why. I commercial airline A380 approached from the north for landing at Bush. How come the pilots did not know this ahead of time ?

      @@davidduganne5939 it's not the P-51 starting up in the beginning, it's another radial. The Merlin engine has a very distinct "putt-putt" sound, the sound of the first engine starting up was much more airy and hefty sounding, like a radial. It was likely another R-2800.

      @Johan
      I believe it's a C model, a razorback. The D models had a bubble canopy and cut- down fuselage aft of the cockpit. There's no smoke from the rear tailpipe under the plane, so its not likely that the turbo supercharging system is intact.
