Chino Warbirds - Saturday 5 May 2018 Planes of Fame Air Show

[@warrenchambers4819]

This boys and girls is what an airshow is supposed to look like. My GOD you lucky bastards have'em all. Excellent work and a HUGE THANK YOU for keeping those beauties in the sky!

[@sgperformer]

I am blessed to live 2 miles southwest of the airport in the hills. I see this amazing show each year right from my balcony as they practice their routines during the week and then perform on Saturday and Sunday.

[@mattinsley1721]

I am not quite so lucky but I am there every year. Greetings from Huntington Beach.

[@markfrench8892]

You wouldn't happen to have a spare bedroom I could use for the week? 😂

[@ScaleModelKitReview]

Very nice video, all these aircraft are so majestic.

[@airailimages]

Thank you for watching and commenting. And I appreciate your passion as a model builder.

[@mr.modern4419]

I couldn't stop drooling through the entire video. WARBIRD HEAVEN!!!!!!

[@reggveg]

When I lived In San Bernardino, California I would go down to Chino Airport every chance that I got, loved walking around and checking out all of the airplanes. My buddy John Ames who was a pilot and me would go to the dinner before walking around and daydreaming about all of the wonderful airplanes. John if you are still around it's Reggie from Carretta Trucking days.

[@thomashulsey97]

Thank you for a beautiful video. And a huge thank you to those young men who fought for our freedom in the air, ground and on the sea. And to those who are still doing it today.

[@Pilicast]

I would never even fathom a PB4Y in flying condition, considering I haven't even heard of that plane for so long, and neither have so many other people

[@firefightergoggie]

Looks like a bloody damn good way to spend the day.

[@kevinharris81]

Just an outstanding collection of great vintage aircraft. Thanks for the video so all of us can enjoy.

[@airailimages]

You are welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@williammyers4269]

Absolutely sensational. Thanks for posting.

[@airailimages]

You are welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@giljeep]

fantastic meeting de Chino merçi pour la vidéo

[@Kickinpony66]

This event is on my Bucket List!

[@warplanner8852]

Kickinpony.66, no reason to dawdle. First weekend in May every year out in Chino, California. The restaurant at the wir strip is tops for breakfast, too.

[@Kickinpony66]

Maybe 2020. I just started on at a new job, and I don't get vacation until I've completed a full year. I want to take my Wife on vacation in 2019 :)

[@todddembsky8321]

The sweet sound of piston power !!!

[@TOKAMEEL]

Without a music overlay!

[@TOKAMEEL]

Damn! I was only half right. Music kicks in about half way through. Well, thanks for the 1st half, anyway

[@sunsetarts]

No joke. Why did they ruin that sweet engine sound with cheesy music? They were playing some of the greatest hits by Pratt & Whitney, Rolls Royce, Alison, and Wright.

[@AndreiTupolev]

I must say, the slo mo with music, particularly the para drop from the C-47, is superb. Really moving.

[@josemoreno3334]

Love those old War Birds, Thanks. Grate video.

[@davidhunt3808]

One of the things Americans do very well is preserve these flying treasures and keep them flying so everyone can see and hear those amazing machines of the past .

[@JohnDoe-ee6qs]

david hunt not really, how many of these went to the smelter at Kingman?

[@awuma]

The remarkable thing is that these are supported by private individuals. America also preserves a lot of warships, though that necessarily involves much more public bodies. To see so many FLYING warbirds is quite something.

[@Tom-Lahaye]

Outstanding images of this event. Also learned about a plane which I didn't know before seeing this video, watching it I just was guessing at what kind of 4 engined bomber I was looking, it was not a B17 (too large and flat fuselage) and not a B24 Liberator (missing the double tail fins) it turned out to be the PB4Y-2, indeed a very rare aircraft. Altough I have been able to see some of the planes flying in the UK at Duxford Flying Legends, Chino Planes of Fame is still high on the list as one of the great airshows on this planet.

[@stephenandreason7210]

dieselmupke my father flew PB4Y2 s into typhoons while stationed on Guam for the Navy in the early 50s. They were required to penetrate into the eye at 300 feet. He told me that it was scarier than flying combat or carrier night landings. I understand that this is the only PB4Y2 still flying.

[@Tom-Lahaye]

That must have been a bumpy ride!

[@mattinsley1721]

I believe the example flying is an ex fire bomber. I think there is another non flying example at Chino near the Yanks Air Museum as well as a Connie.

[@michaelstern1945]

Outstanding.

[@29mangamania]

mooie kwaliteit opname gaaf! goed werk verricht en nog fantastische muziek op de koop toe ook.

[@airailimages]

Heel erg bedankt voor het kijken en reageren.

[@dorsai]

A truly amazing collection of aircraft. Thanks for sharing with everyone.

[@geoffreyherrick9900]

I love these warbirds! It is my dream to work on them someday!

[@8aleph]

It was certainly great seeing all those old war birds still able to fly free and see the A-10 Thunderbolt 2 in the air with it's elder relation the original Thunderbolt. I would like to see the fast mover that can turn inside an A-10, my first time seeing one was in PACAF in the mid 70's we had a pair visit to get some air to air recognition training in for our fast mover drivers. needless to say the first bounce they got a head on look at the gun and their asses handed to them by the older guys flying those warthogs

[@airailimages]

We enjoy hearing stories like yours. Thanks for watching and commenting. And thanks for your service.

[@MrWaz11]

Great photography and looks like a wonderful airshow.

[@airailimages]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, the annual Planes of Fame air show is an outstanding showcase of warbirds.

[@georgeworsfold2068]

An excellent compilation. I loved the slow motion action, gave me an appreciation of some wonderful aircraft to see still flying today. Thank you for posting, great footage and much enjoyed viewing.

[@airailimages]

Thanks.

[@scottfw7169]

Don't those birds have great lines. Round motors and fine lines, what more could one ask for.

[@arodrigues2843]

Scott FW We can ask to CUT the music out.!!!

[@arodrigues2843]

George WORSFOLD Yes, I completely agree with you, but WITH NO MUSIC.!!!

[@airailimages]

Slow-motion means the ambient audio is not usable.

[@MrStoney61]

Superb! Just outstanding camera work! Thanks for posting.

[@airailimages]

Thank you very much.

[@angelreading5098]

Some rare warbirds there and beautifully filmed as well,the Privateer looks stunning,thank you as ever for uploading and sharing.

[@manuelregalado4729]

I was right below the grand stand behind that AT-6 when it started up lol. Great show! Thanks for the awesome footage!

[@airailimages]

And thanks for watching!

[@ryanmoeller3308]

That P-47 Razorback sure is beautiful!! Thanks for posting these video's for us who aren't able to make it out there! Keep up the great work my friend.

[@airailimages]

Thank you!

[@knightflightvideo]

Excellent footage of this classic warbirds! It seems I have to go to Chino next year. ;-) Thumbs up, and thanks for sharing! :-)

[@paulcarpenterepma]

Excellent video work, thanks very much!

[@johnosbourn4312]

What a beautiful video!

[@airailimages]

Thank you! We hope you will check out the rest of our Airailimages Channel.

[@Red-rl1xx]

Can't wait 'til the wife and I move out there in a couple of years! I'm gonna try to be at every show!

[@airailimages]

It is a highlight of the warbird flying season.

[@mcdonnell220]

Thanks Fred!!

[@airailimages]

You're welcome, Chris!

[@glenkersul9983]

GREAT Planes, GREAT camera-peoples (lol) AWESOME!!!!

[@airailimages]

Thank you for watching and commenting. More air shows to come this summer...

[@marchindy]

Awesome shots, once again loved the slow motion stuff. Neat to see the Reno racers too.

[@mikmerl1]

Hundreds of reciprocating pistons ............. aviation heaven

[@paladin0654]

Great video, thanks.

[@craigpennington1251]

As a Rule,I don't like music with War Birds but this was tasteful and appropriate . The A-10 is out of place here but such a needed special purpose aircraft that should be with us for years to come. Man, if they were available back in Nam***

[@airailimages]

Thanks!

[@enriquin58]

Fantástico...que suerte tener tan cerca esos aviones. Un saludo desde Spain 🇪🇸

[@airminded8876]

Enriquea ¿Has visitado el Museo de los Vientos en Madrid?

[@enriquin58]

Airminded 88 no he tenido oportunidad, pero pienso ir próximamente. Muchas gracias y que la fuerza te acompañe.

[@airailimages]

Gracias por mirar y comentar

[@mikesalazar3262]

Air I salute you another 5 star vid superbly photographed. the music and slow mo compliment each nxt 10 views will b me. Thanx

[@airailimages]

Thank you very much.

[@spreadeagled5654]

That PB4Y should be restored in its WWII Navy glory.

[@deckard5601]

So amazing, so thrilling...

[@kiwirambob]

Wonderful ... very rare birds there

[@richardhodge4556]

As much I like radials like anyone else - there's nothing that will top the sound of the P-38 taking off with those huge blades and muffled V12 sound. It's kind of spooky in fact.

[@adrianlarkins7259]

I cannot, simply cannot, understand why the beloved Warthog is battling against retirement. It might be old but as Churchill said about Atlantic Escort Vessels, " They are cheap and nasty. Cheap for us and nasty to the enemy" Compare the cost against an F 35! The Warthog is still a very effective ground attack aircraft and has saved the lives of countless soldiers. Long live the HOG.

[@williammyers4269]

Adrian Larkins I agree with you. The Warthog is the greatest ground attack aircraft ever designed - it still is. When it's designer Pierre Sprey says the F-35 is a turkey, people should be sitting up to pay attention. Those lobbyists for the M-I-C may bankrupt us and get a lot of our boys killed in the process.

[@mattinsley1721]

Amen!

[@semco72057]

I love the photography from the air show and those airplanes are looking great. It must be next to impossible to get parts for those aircraft since most of those which was at Davis Monthan have been destroyed and the metal sold to the foundries. The even destroyed all the B-52's there except for the H models which they keep just in case one crash.

[@ZenZaBill]

GREAT Stuff! Why I had not subscribed until yesterday I'll never know but I'm onboard now!!!

[@airailimages]

Welcome!

[@tremayne3]

Love the old warbirds...hate the ads..

[@jerrysolomon7623]

i did not know there were any pb4y2 still flying

[@anthonyhershko]

Beautiful!!

[@airailimages]

Thanks for watching!

[@anthonyhershko]

My pleasure! I wish I was there..

[@johnnylee5664]

我父親也曾在1954年的台灣空軍P4Y担任右後槍手。

[@airailimages]

這太有趣了。 很高興收到你的來信。 謝謝觀看。 Zhè tài yǒuqùle. Hěn gāoxìng shōu dào nǐ de láixìn. Xièxiè guānkàn.

[@markvanleeuwen6678]

my uncles ashes were tossed out of one of your p-38's over chino a-p. ..i flew in b-17 909 twice out of carlsbad before she crashed. rip 909 and my uncle bill.

[@patchescessna7348]

I wonder what they get on TBO? Flying them so infrequently has to have a price, Both Chino museums are WELL worth going to...

[@kunsworth2671]

Awesome planes

[@dudleylitz7369]

my dad was attatched to the Pivateer squadron on Guam at the end of the war.

[@airailimages]

That's interesting -- not that many people were associated with Privateers during the war, since relatively few were sent overseas. Quick question -- is there a photo album in your family that might have Privateer pictures? We're always looking for photos for article and video projects on the Privateer and Liberator. Especially looking for photos of Privateer number 59759, which carried the last three digits -- 759 -- on the side of the fuselage.

[@dudleylitz7369]

None I know of. Wont be near til thanksgiving

[@e36s50b30]

Ain‘t nuthin‘ sounds like a twin Allison

[@arodrigues2843]

e36s50b30 Yes, but without "music".!!!

[@nickdrexler6076]

Besides a rolls Royce Merlin (especially 4 on a Lancaster) but hell yea!!

[@markmerritt7689]

Bless you for leaving out the obnoxious music! The whole point is too hear the unique sounds of this flying history!!! Thanks

[@airailimages]

We only use music when slow-motion makes it impossible to sync the video with the audio, or when the ambient sound is unusable. We like those engines too. Thanks for watching.

[@dirtbikechopper2012]

I think the music is GREAT !!!! what is it ??

[@airailimages]

Hey thanks! Music, from Audio Blocks, is listed at the end credits.

[@dirtbikechopper2012]

Thanks, I typed my question before I got to the end of the video...sorry

[@airailimages]

You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@johnveglio4433]

GREAT video. The only plane that I could not place was that big bomber ??? Has some of the profile of the B-24 but not the same. What is it ????

[@airailimages]

Thanks for watching and commenting. The 4-engine bomber is a Consolidated PB4Y-2 Privateer, developed out of the B-24. It has a similar fuselage, but 7 feet longer, than a B-24.

[@johnveglio4433]

airailimages. I did a little check on google, they said it was a B-32. They also said that there are no longer any left in existence!!! Well I guess that shows GOOGLE doesn’t know anything !!!!!

[@williammyers4269]

The B-32 was a completely different airplane developed as a back-up for the B-29 project. The Privateer on the other hand was a beefed up and modified B-24 designed for long range maritime patrols. The B-32 was an excellent aircraft, but because the B-29 proved successful, it was considered redundant and was not put into service bombing Japan. (Check out my book "Fighters, Bombers, Tanks, Wolves." Available at Amazon.)

[@bobvanderveen3528]

I thought Gen. Kenney (sp?) had a couple dozen Dominators in the Pacific?

[@williammyers4269]

I have seen film footage of the Convair B-32 being used somewhere in the Pacific theatre. Given its long range capability, it would have made sense to utilize the very limited production run there in some role. However, I am not aware of it having been used consistently alongside the B-29 in the campaign to bomb Japanese cities. Disappointed as they may have been, Convair were not sitting on their hands at this point as I believe they already had the B-36 on the drawing board.

[@1976axerhand]

Bummer no mosquitos....

[@DerrickW30]

Nice videos from the show. What is the primary camera you use for most of your zooming and pan shots? It's not easy to zoom smoothly while holding steady with many hand held cameras. Thanks

[@airailimages]

Thanks for watching and commenting. The camera is Sony FDR-AX53.

[@macgearalit]

Does anyone know the BUNO# of the PB4Y-2 ?

[@jorgsobota2228]

Seeing this rarebreed racers #5 #7 making this tamed show off sounding like stock Mustangs is heartbreaking...

[@coreyandnathanielchartier3749]

I didn't know that a early Republic fighter plane still existed. P-44, isn't it?

[@airailimages]

It is an early Seversky (later Republic) two-seat variant of the P-35, called the AT-12. Thanks for watching!

[@johnscallan5648]

Bueatiful.

[@tonyhaines1192]

What was that plane that looked like a B-24 but with one vertical stabilizer?

[@airailimages]

PB4Y-2 Privateer

[@leeenfieldsmle]

PB4Y-2 AKA the Dominator??

[@airailimages]

Privateer. Thanks for wathcing!

[@Merlinemryys]

Dominator was B-32

[@Red-rl1xx]

Well, I came back to watch this video after having watched it earlier today and I see one of "those" types had to show up. You know, griping and complaining about the music in the second half of the video? "I wanna hear the engines!" "I can't hear the engines!" Why is it so important to hear the engines? That's something I've never thought about, believe it or not. Weird, huh? I thought the music was a nice addition.

[@lesizmor9079]

Yeah, I almost started writing a gripe to him-- but he quickly added a retraction, saying they had left music on in the background at his house. In general tho, most video uploaders who add music put it all over the whole video. aaaargh! He is correct that those large piston sounds are part of the thrill. But this vid was done very well: no music for the normal speed (real) passes, well mic'd with wind noise dampened, and very appropriate music for the slow-mo finish.

[@craigpennington1251]

P.S. That PB4Y-2 needs to do a barrel roll.

[@arodrigues2843]

WHY IS THAT THAT EVERYBODY DOING VIDEOS THINK THAT MUSIC IS MANDATORY.??!?? When I want to ear music, I will go to A MUSIC CHANNEL.!!!!! This is becoming obsessive in videos.!!! WHY, WHY.????? HERE, I want to ear technical COMMENTS and AIRCRAFT TYPE IDENTIFICATION.!!! Let's EAR ITS SOUND, Pleaseeeeeee.?????

[@markmerritt7689]

At first......

[@arodrigues2843]

That "music" (not needed), is spoiling the great video... Fred, loose the "music". To we, the aircraft lovers, the best music is the engines real sound.!!! NO "music", and more comments, please.?? Actually, I can identify all the a/c in this video, but, perhaps 90% of other people would like your commenting and identifying all those wonderful birds... It will ad technical value and knowledge for such a great video.!!!

[@airailimages]

Appreciate your comment. We've said it before, and we'll say it again -- the only time you hear music in this video is when the ambient audio is unusable.

[@frankphilipp8476]

Old junk for junkies
