"Can I close the canopy?". Thing I never expected to hear Cap. say, lol. Great Video!

[@saintuk70]

Great video, especially with the time spent on the walk-around tour.

[@nickjoy8868]

Just fabulous Cap, I'm green with envy! PPPPPP- Perfect Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance; well you've had the perfect planning now with that experience so hopefully no moments of shame flying warbirds in IL2 and DCS! Many thanks Cap, brilliant video. 😀

[@gooner72]

Aha!!!! That's the face behind the voice we know so well and what a fantastic aircraft to have a flight in, she's such an aviation legend in my opinion, the throaty engine and the sound of the prop is fantastic!! We have a Harvard that flies around a lot near me (Essex) who has the electronic music legend Gary Numan in the cockpit!!!

[@OliverVonLindenthal]

I love that big smile on his face just before take off 😊🤙

[@jonbolen7169]

great job! I could tell you were so excited to get your hands on it and in the air. i love the fact that you are a kid in a candy store

[@zebraafs]

What an awesome experience 👏 😎 🙌, I am so happy for you mate ❤️

[@ssstrokash]

Hey! A long anticipated semi-personal meeting with that voice behind the screen! Made my day! :)

[@grimreapers]

[@JD96893]

Great video! Dave Patters really knows his stuff. I love how he used the DCS P47 to reference controls and stuff.

[@vintagepairdisplayteam910]

Thanks 😁

[@Thisandthat8908]

22:46 Amazing techncial summary of the walk around. :)

[@cakeshoe]

Absolutely AWESOME! I bet that even upgrading to a gaming chair with full movement wouldn't get you close to THAT experience!

[@davidd.1619]

Hi Johnathan! Wich moviment system are you using?

[@pdonettes]

This video made me like you more. It’s nice to know you aren’t just flying or into virtual planes.

[@jpht1964]

A commercial company here in The Netherlands used a Harvard till deep in the 70’s for skywriting purposes. As a child I saw it sometimes on clear sunny days at a very high altitude making letters with smoke, making that typical sound that only a Harvard makes.. Btw, the MSFS 2020 Reno T-6 is very enjoyable when you want to fly a Harvard in a simulator…

[@AudieHolland]

We used to live in Haarlem at the time. Most times we would see low flying jet liners, waiting for their turn to land at Schiphol. We did see a sky writing plane during Summer, although it flew too high to see what type of plane it was. Even at age 7, I thought his sky writing was rather simplistic, because all he ever drew was "7 UP"

[@yjwrangler7819]

There was one circling my plant today. I adore the sound. Several years ago I was allowed to fly her for a few minutes.

[@grimreapers]

cool

[@45CaliberCure]

Outstanding. Really happy for you, Cap! Never appreciated the T-6s when I was a kid at the airshows, but I've seen the err of my ways.

[@timblack6422]

Extremely nice Texan! We have a few of those here in northern Indiana.. there is a group that restores and flies those beautiful aircraft. Oh, and one old Spanish jet trainer

[@vintagepairdisplayteam910]

Great Cap! I’ve spotted a couple of minor mistakes in my talk, as usual 😂

[@grimreapers]

Thanks Super Dave! xx

[@yjwrangler7819]

Subbed to your channel, Dave. I wouldn't be suprised if your Harvard was training young men here in my city. Our airport in Windsor was a training grounds just before they skipped over the pond.

[@vintagepairdisplayteam910]

@@yjwrangler7819 I is likely it flew there, whether it did training or not, I don’t know. Great history though.

[@lambdacalculus8316]

Excellent video, very satisfying to watch! This video is much better than most aviation documentaries.

[@SomaFlly]

Giddy lil schoolboy mode on! Fantastic view

[@TheLacster6754]

Nice GR! didn’t know u guys did irl stuff can’t wait for more!

[@AlexTiffinYT]

Good for you cap. The walk around was great too

[@LoneWolf051]

Love flying the Texan/Harvard, my family has had one for doing airshows since the early 80's so I grew up around it

[@jaybockstoce]

Good show, Cap! What an experience of actually flying a warbird!

[@jmccallion2394]

Capt, great to see you looking well; keep going! It would be nice to see Mr. Pickles sitting in the cockpit

[@JFG3D]

I’m a fan of your channel

[@grimreapers]

Thanks!

[@tiadiad]

Always a nice surprise. Great to see cap doing good and well! Ace.

[@andrewsmall6834]

I know how you feel cap, years back I done a joy flight in an old BAC strikemaster and when the pilot found out I was in the Army he asked if I was game to go to Max G's, I wish I said no, 9 G's SUCKED! 🤣

[@crakkbone]

Why hasn’t anyone watched this? This is marvellous

[@SID10101]

Only just got time to watch this, great aircraft and nice to see that smile so big!

[@Tigerblade2002]

So, we finally get to see the mighty squadron leader of the Grim Reapers! Hello from across the pond!

[@DR-jq9bg]

What a great time it looks like you had! I used the same word after my first flight -- ADDICTIVE! When is your next flight??

[@timblack6422]

How exciting for you to take the controls! I’m jealous

[@patricks7622]

Quite a fascinating insight on what complexities those pilots had to deal with on a day-to-day basis, multiple sorties fighting for their very lives 👍

[@brianluna3982]

This is awesome congratulations Cap I know this must have been amazing to experience! ✊✊✊

[@emmata98]

57:02 shutter speed is a great thing. Also earlier with the "jumping" prop

[@Doubledeepfried]

Scrolled trough the comments during viewing. when 57min passed i knew what you meant

[@cousinjack2841]

Nice one Cap. Here in South Africa we have the Harvard flight; I think they have about ten, but I stand to be corrected. They used to fly over my house regularly at quite a low level; what a sound. (Anyone else notice that cap closed the canopy when he could have kept it open.....what is the world coming to?)

[@zeberdee1972]

Cool video and cool plane , its amazing how G force just makes your body ache after , specially your neck . You did turn into Captain Jack Sparrow when pulling G's Aaaarrrrrrrr splice the wing spar lol .

[@grimreapers]

lols yup

[@carti9248]

absolutely loved this video, looking forward to your next irl vid!

[@romanmanner]

The graphics just get better and better.

[@skyhorseprice6591]

That was badass, Cap. Looks to me like the usual joke about DCS pilots being horrible IRL doesn't apply in your case. You handled that extremely well.

[@aceshigh6499]

Awesome vid! What a fantastic experience!

[@streetcop157]

I was outside Vegas and found about a dozen of these in unpreserved storage in a ghost town with the wings in a pile beside them the nerd in me was greatly offended and I greatly wanted to start assembling them…..

[@scottdaviesvk2sdx319]

Gnnnnhhhhhhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!!!!!!!!!!! Loved it, well done Cap.

[@FuzzWoof]

I think every sim pilot should have that kind of experience at least once. I first did something similar about 30 years ago, and the feeling of that first time spinning around in the sky still stays with me, and really gives you a bit more appreciation for what those pilots back in WWII must have felt like to be strapped into something with a big piston engine and rudimentary technology. I'm just glad the flight didn't end in the traditional Grim Reapers random bailout!

[@peterjones035]

Great video Cap, you are a true legend. Love your content thank you 🙏

[@seanquigley3605]

Great video, when you mentioned not feeling the resistance ect thru controls in Virtual, have your group thought of reaching out a computer workout company like Tonal to give you a test unit. The group could get together and bodge a realistic feedback system from? They use a computer to simulate the resistance of weights and it should be adaptable to flight sims

[@capsbr2100]

Great video mate. Can you make a video explaining the differences in terms of your experience flying for real and on simulator. I mean *now* how does a simulator feel to you given your real flying experience. Kind regards,

[@zipxd_sng]

Remember that winwing technology is your ultimate hardware solution :) 139

Good lord Cap, you are a more rugged man than you sound!

[@grimreapers]

Had a rough life.

[@theymusthatetesla3186]

What an experience!

One happy Cap!

Just went to a lot of roller coaster and pulled lots of G’S so i can relate

[@grimreapers]

cool

[@danielberger1378]

Awesome video! That is all.

[@BreakingWildGaming]

So the next GR video will be “ could a flight of T6 Harvards have prevented......” 😂 Glad you had a great ‘real’ flight, but no cup of tea beside you must have been tough.

[@grimreapers]

lols!

[@yjwrangler7819]

I think that's a neat idea. What COULD a flight of Harvards do?

[@liamburns8176]

Looks like you had an awesome time cap reminds me of when i used to fly bulldogs with the ATC (Air Cadets) up at RAF Woodvale Near Southport in merseyside in the late 90s early 2000s P.s love the classic G-force face you pull Lmfao 😂🤣😂

[@rjds1800]

Let me see your war face! Cap at 45min in.... Cap is happy as a pig in you know what lol

[@grimreapers]

lol yes

[@GrahamMilkdrop]

Great fun!

[@pdonettes]

I have a question, how does the AT-6 wolverine do against ww2 aircraft?

[@bevis226]

that was awesome

Sunny day he said. We have sunny day EVERYDAY here in Greece haha

That would be a Lincoln Penny on the engine , Cap

thx

Cool stuff love war birds!!!! 👍 from 🇺🇸

[@konatelassina5301]

You have to make a video on your thoughts after this experience.

[@grimreapers]

Cap's thoughts: "let's do it again please""

[@blake790]

I think cap said “ya” or “ok” approximately 13 billion times

[@grimreapers]

14 billion.

[@paspax]

Wirraway?

[@reaverman]

Is that the T6 that flies out of the airfield north of Weymouth?

[@grimreapers]

Don;t thinkso.

[@billysilva2859]

There are P-47 Thunderbolt vids but no P-38 Lightnings yet... I demand my precious . Of course i would prefer a PFM rather than a custom flight model but i will accept it if it is balanced. That is all.

[@marcp5099]

you looked like you enjoyed that cap

[@ForestBlue7]

Ahh Cap.. bless your little nerdy cotton socks..

[@grimreapers]

yes

[@kingfish4575]

Wish I could do that cap.

[@SmedleyDouwright]

Did the military T6 Harvard have guns for training?

[@AudieHolland]

Sorry, video too long to watch. Did they mention the Harvard was used as the basis for the Zero fighters in "Tora Tora Tora!" and "The Final Countdown?" I believe they were also used to 'mimic' P-47 Thunderbolts in "A Bridge Too Far" though you can easily tell the Harvard and Thunderbolt apart (Thunderbolt has a giant engine and the plane itself is rather enormous for a single seat fighterplane).
