  • A lot of warbird action from Thursday's AirVenture 2019 air show. Rod Lewis' newly rebuilt deHavilland Mosquito makes a fast pass. Then count all the P-51 Mustangs flying in a salute to World War Two Mustang Ace Col. Bud Anderson, who attended AirVenture 2019 at Oshkosh. There's even a rare P-51H in the mix. B-25s put in an appearance, and a heritage formation features an F-22, F-35, and two P-51s in several formation passes. Enjoy! Have you subscribed to the Airailimages Channel on RUclips? We appreciate it. And here's a link to another Oshkosh 2019 video from the Airailimages Channel: • Oshkosh: Rat-Racing F-...

    I attended Oshkosh a few times in the '90's, and I knew I'd arrived at a special place when the two P-51's doing formation passes down the runway. painted in Anderson and Yeager's wartime schemes, were being flown by the men themselves. Glad Col. Anderson could attend this year.

      @soaringtractor The U.S.A. did not have a comparable aircraft to the Mosquito. No U.S. designed and built aircraft was as remarkabley versatile as the Mosquito - which is why the USAAF used them in the P.R. role in Europe.

      In the slow motion sequence of the Mosquito pass you can clearly see the four Brownings in the nose, the four gun ports of the 20mm Hispano cannon and the attachment points under the outer the wing for the 60lb rockets which made this version of the Mosquito so lethal in the anti-shipping role.

      Of the 217,520 Merlins that were built, Packard manufactured 55,235. Ford G.B. manufactured 30,428 and Rolls-Royce manufactured the remainder (131,857) at their Derby, Crewe and Glasgow factories.
      Packard were chosen because Henry Ford (the original manufacturer of choice) refused to build engines for export to belligerent countries. Packard were second choice.

      Been to see Just Jane before. Awesome experience, they let you get so close to her too while they run up the engines. I was literally standing under one of the wingtips as they started her up. Will never forget that, and intend to go down and see her again (with a better camera this time) next year.

      @HiWetcam They didn't, its a mostly new aircraft, with original engines, new wings and fuselage, although the construction methods and materials (right down to the correct type of tree for the plywood) are historically accurate. Go look up "Rod Lewis' de Havilland Mosquito" - in EAA youtube acc, they do a quick but pretty informative section on how it was actually put together

      The Mosquito Pathfinder Trust, here in the UK, owns an FBIV (that was actually used to test the Barnes Wallis bouncing bomb), its currently with Avspecs in NZ under restoration back to flying condition, so the UK will have a flying mosquito eventually. Hopefully Just Jane (the lanc in East Kirby) will have been restored to airworthy condition too by then, she's currently relegated to taxi runs only.

    Could do without the musical accompaniment. Let the sound of the Merlin's do the playing.

    • @airailimages
      @airailimages  5 лет назад +3

      Well, Mortimer, we played that scene at normal speed with ambient sound first, then slo-mo which requires different audio. So you do get to hear those Merlins. We hope folks are starting to realize that we use ambient aircraft engine sounds whenever possible. The slo-mo with music gives a chance to ponder the aircraft in detail. We like it that way, and by the general thumbs-up it appears most viewers do. So while we always appreciate sincere comments, from an aesthetic and business standpoint, we are already hitting the sweet spot, and will continue to use ambient engine sounds whenever possible, with music as a backdrop when the ambient can't be used because of things like slow-motion, or commercial music played on a PA system, or other things that can ruin ambient audio. Hope you'll stick around for our style of video-making. And thanks for watching and commenting!

What is it? I tried Shazaming it with no luck. This piece, like everyone you choose, creates a visceral nostalgic feeling, probably just what you were trying to do. I would have thought Mortimer would have had enough common sense to know that sounds during slow motion are not representative of sounds at normal playback speeds.
