Bleriot XI - Mikael Carlson - Hahnweide 2019

Bleriot XI flown by Mikael Carlson at Airshow Hahnweide 2019
In this long video you can see a late evening and a daylight display of the original vintage Bleriot aircraft. The amazing show is flown by restaurateur, owner, and pilot of this plane, Mikael Carlson. This plane is a license built original from 1918. It was built by AETA - AB Enoch Thulins Aeroplanfabrik - under the name Thulin Typ A in Sweden. The plane is equipped with an original 7 cylinder Gnôme-Omega 50 hp rotary engine. While the first Bleriots had an Anzani engine with 23hp or 25hp, the later built Swedish planes had 50hp. Note, this is an original rotary engine, not a more modern radial engine. This plane is an original, it was a barn find in the 1980s. Sorry for sometimes very long scenes, maybe later i add a more strict cut video. Sorry also for a guy that starts a telephone call next to me during the display. Annoying.

One of the most beautiful designs in the history of planes. My brother built a gorgeous peanut scale version many moons ago. Thanks for the post.

[@normanundercroft7598]

This is one of my all time objects of beauty. I saw him display this aircraft at Duxford about 10 years ago. It should be periodically flown but also savoured like a fine wine. Fabulous video, thank you for posting.

[@705547]

Thanks for the kind words and for watching my video 😎👍

[@johnathandavis3693]

I had no idea that there was a FLYING Bleriot plane. It is so beautiful and graceful. It just wants to JUMP into the air. Very cool. Thanks for this awesome video.

[@705547]

Glad you like it 😊 Thanks for watching 😎👍

[@XxJay71xX]

There are several, it was the first mass produced plane ever, for obvious reason, Blériot made between 800 and 1000 of these, and many pilot of 1914 of ALL sides actualy learned their skills on these.

[@arnhemseptember2009]

Hermoso como se desliza en el aire,maravilloso pájaro el Bleriot! Felicitaciones!

[@705547]

Beautiful vintage plane. Thanks for watching my video 😎👍

[@thegreat_I_am]

That was a long take off roll and a slow climb out! I kept expecting it to appear above the line of parked aircraft, but it was still on the ground! You can see how underpowered they were. It looks hideously unstable too. Brave men flew them and it takes a brave man today.

[@davidholmgren659]

That thing looks like a hand full to fly. Beautiful.

[@705547]

Glad you enjoyed it 😎👍

[@TheSoundsOfFrank]

As I have said so often ... Mikael Carlson is THE MAN!!! Superb piloting skills! 😎

[@marshal7102]

[@dicemancolostrum7369]

The best things that have ever came out of Sweden: Volvo 240/740, Saab 900 turbo, ABBA, Mikael Carlson , period !! 😎🙂🥂🍻👍👍

[@705547]

Haha 😆😆 Thanks for watching my video 😎👍

[@thegreat_I_am]

You forgot Greta Thunberg. She’d soon put a stop to all this flying using dirty internal combustion engines.

[@tompekarna]

Is this a VFR or IFR flight?

[@TheStephepps]

What, no barrel rolls?😄 Seriously, thank you for creating this thing of beauty.

[@705547]

I think a barrel roll could be challenging with wing warping instead of ailerons 😆😆 But a loop would be nice too 😎👍

[@tomcoryell]

Absolutely gorgeous!

[@705547]

Amazing old bird. Thanks for watching 😎👍

[@dougfries7759]

Very good video, well done.

[@705547]

Glad you enjoyed it 😎👍

[@germanCrowbar]

Världens bästa Karlsson.

[@Bleriotman]

Your photography is EXCELLENT! They should have let you on the front line so your view would be unobstructed, and you would have been away from the crowd and their talking.

[@705547]

Thanks for your kind words. Yeah, this would be amazing 😀

[@luigidigiampaolo5220]

Pelle d'oca. Bellissimo.

[@705547]

Grazie 😎👍

[@Red-rl1xx]

Terrific!

[@705547]

Amazing show, thanks for watching my video.😊👍

[@jaygee5693]

Wonderful. thanks

[@705547]

I´m glad you like it, Thanks for watching 😎👍

[@AJxxxxxxxx]

she really is beautiful

[@jdzencelowcz]

Almost doesn't move like a plane, more like an animal U need to respect so it doesn't buck U off.

[@705547]

Must be interesting to fly this bird. Thanks for watching my video 😎👍

[@iplaymytele]

Are there no ailerons….? Is he steering it by just using the Rudder….? Or does this Plane use Wing Warping …….?

[@705547]

This plane is totally original restored, so it is controlled with wing warping. Amazing to see the 1910s technology live. 🙂👍

[@Bulletguy07]

Amazing the things folk stuff away in a barn........then forget all about it!

[@Bulletguy07]

@John Martlew It must be priceless? A Spitfire sells between £3m - £6m and we have a few of those flying around the world.

[@martin-schaffner]

Hi, fantastic footage! I tried to contact you via flickr. Is there another way to get in touch?

[@elliehandel]

Hi there! I'm making a movie musical about the life of Harriet Quimby and the history of aviation between 1910-1913 -- do you mind if I use some of your footage in my video? I would absolutely credit you and send you the final product!!

[@705547]

Hello, sure feel free to use it. Looking forward to seeing you're video.

[@jacquesdemolay2699]

the telephone guy was not as terrible as then aircrafts blocking the view.

[@JoshDanielsHist]

Hi there! I'm making a documentary about the Bleriot for the South Yorkshire Aircraft museum! Mind if we use this footage if we credit you please? :)

[@705547]

Hello, feel free to use it. Great when my footage can be used for a museum 😎👍

[@JoshDanielsHist]

@@705547 Thank you very much indeed! We'll be sure to give you credit and notify you of the finished product! :)

[@electronicsafrica]

incredible. true flying for real men [women probably smart enough not to do something so risky. LOL]

[@Wok_Agenda]

I like the russian version more The Blyatiot

[@ashleyfroud5015]

Looks like an 96 inch propeller.
