    This is the way videos like this should be presented, no synthesized BS music overplaying the sound of the plane. The actual sound is music enough.

      @gogogeedus 5 лет назад +15

      its very strange to hear a video that has no background noise, when that engine was shutdown it was very peaceful, no whooping and cheering, its nice to just appreciate the sound of history without the interference.

    I read where the engine on the 109 had quite the hot rod treatment, they had fuel injection, nitrogen oxide, maybe even turbocharged. The British spitfires were still using carburetors, so some of the British pilots would complain of fuel flat spots during sharp turns when they were upside down but with the fuel Injection 109 there was none. With the nitrogen oxide, the pilot would hit the switch right after a run at a bomber for a quick burst of speed. A lot of gunners thought they had a hit on the 109 when it really was just a puff of smoke of the oxide.

    • @airplayn
      @airplayn 5 лет назад +4

      DB601 had a supercharger directly driven by the engine. It was infinitely adjustable transmission that worked good at any altitude unlike allied planes which had fixed gear superchargers that only worked best at one altitude.

    • @EVISEH
      @EVISEH 4 года назад +3

      Somewhat ironically, the Spanish ended up fitting the Merlin to their version of the 109. The Germans lost more 109s to landing accidents than to combat loss, due to the 109's narrow landing gear which made cross wind or rough field landings particularly hazardous. The 109 and the Spitfire were each products of separate design philosophies so really can't be compared. Both had their good points and their bad points, at the end of the day it came down to how good the pilot was. Germany with its secret training of pilots in 1930s had a distinct edge over the British who only belatedly ramped up trainng of their pilots in the late 30s when it became increasing obvious war was inevitable, which by the way is not to say British pilots were in any way inferior to their German counterparts

    • @volkerkoenig3523
      @volkerkoenig3523 Год назад

      Correct. But there was this britisch lady-pilot, who invented a part, worth some pence, for the caburettor of the famous Rolls-royce Merlin engine, which solved this problem for the Spitfires.

    I don't understand why people would thumb down such a video. If you don't like classic aircraft, then why watch in the first place? And if it's for the historic context: I'm from a country which was occupied from 1940 to 1945. People back then used to see these aircraft overhead almost on a daily basis, as many fighter squadrons were based here. I think it is important to keep such aircraft flying, so that new generations can also hear the sounds that struck fear into people's hearts. That way it helps to try keep history from repeating itself.

      Why, you can't see it in flight and it is illegal in some countries.
      If they limit where it can be used then they limit the money they can make off it.

    First time I've seen a 109 starting without someone on a crank handle or a remote battery trolley! Was this 109 modified for larger internal batteries?

    • @coolmodelguy6304

      This aircraft has an inertia starter, you can hear the flywheel building up and topping out just before the starting clutch was engaged. This one seems to have on board electric power, inertia starters can be hand cranked, electrically driven or a combination. Pretty cool to watch, I love that massive propeller and the sound the aircraft made on the high speed pass!

    Here's a question for you Messerschmitt fanboys. Why was the DB605 engine developed as an "inverted" design, with the crankshaft at the top rather than the bottom? Did it have something to do with weight distribution or getting the exhaust away from the pilot?

    • @robertelmo7736
      @robertelmo7736 5 лет назад +9

      Raises the crankshaft which you can use a larger propeller.
      Lowers the center of gravity.
      Easier to do maintenance--spark plugs, valves, etc.
      Gets the crank out of the oil due to dry sump.
      Better visibility as the hood can be narrower now that the V is facing down.
