Erik I was drooling watching that beautiful P-51C. As a child I had a collection of Revell scale model planes. My favorites were the aforementioned P-51, P-47, P-39, P-40 and of course the P-38. Thank you for the memories..
I think the Spitfire takes the laurels for the best looking propeller aircraft. Design taken directly from the Supermarine S.6B racing seaplane. RJ Mitchell was a genius.
Another fantastic video, thanks, Erik!! so glad to see her restored and flying again after the gear up up landing she suffered several years ago at Redbird/Dallas executive.
I met one of the Tuskegee airmen at Santa Monica airport museum, he was a guide. He was a legend, he took the time to share his flying experiences. V interesting video and v knowledgeable presenter 😊
Looking forward to watching this tonight. I have an Osh12 shirt with this aircraft on it, and I took the time to get a photo with it at Airventure this year.
Реймонд Шуї Уетмор був восьмим за результативністю асом ВПС Сполучених Штатів на всьому Європейському театрі воєнних дій під час Другої Світової війни. За весь час війни їм було знищено 23 німецькі літаки, з яких 21 літак був збитий у повітрі і ще 2 розстріляно на землі. Останньою офіційною повітряною перемогою Уетмора став німецький ракетний перехоплювач Me.163, збитий 15 березня 1945 року. На своєму знаменитому P-51D-10 «Daddy's Girl» з бортовим номером 44-14733 та бортовим кодом CS-L, Рей Уетмор здобув 9 повітряних перемог (8 особисто та 2 спільно) і продовжував здійснювати бойові вильоти аж до кінця Другої Світової війни.
In the cockpit, Mr. Rozendaal was showing the fuel switches for the wing tank boosters. He mentioned that they aren't used unless they're at high altitude. My question is, how often, or ever, so they fly above 15k feet when not transiting mountains? Do they ever go that high or higher?

Very cool!
I build those models aswell as a kid, my favorites were P-47 and Fw-190, love those big radials. But this thing is sexy too :)
I haven’t stopped building them!
I love that this was so tidily converted into a two-seater - giving the opportunity to the lucky few to experience this beautiful airplane themselves.
IMO, the P-51 and the B-1B are the two sexiest airframes of all time.

Agreed.
Well done. Doug knows his airplanes like the back of his hand and is a great interview.
Another great video. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it

Awesome walk around!! Thanks for the video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks! Good to know 😎
There's that lovely P-40 in the background. Could we expect a Kittyhawk walkround too?
Thom and I did a P-40 Walkaround last year. But a Kittyhawk would be sweet!
Yeah! Thank you!
You bet!
Great walkaround...thanks.👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
That was amazing. Your knowledge, wow. Thank you.
