WORLDS GREATEST P-51 Mustang video!

[@7echo]

Thanks for posting a P-51 video with nothing but the unadulterated sound of a Mustang with no crappy loud rock music or stupid narrative. You rock!

[@Xrm150]

+7echo your very welcome

[@derekwall200]

I love the P51D model it doesn't look like shit like the ones that came before it

[@Xrm150]

+Derek Wall C wasn't bad. Kinda looks move aggressive to me.

[@derekwall200]

Xrm150 well when it comes to speed and performance the P51D had one rival that out did her in speed armament and agility... the ME262 jet fighter flown by the Nazi's too bad the pilots didn't have the skills we did

[@Xrm150]

+Derek Wall mainly they didn't have what was most important..... Time

[@highestsprings]

A contender for the best sounding engine ever made. Beautiful plane.

[@knobowski]

Das Flugzeug wirkt immer noch zeitgemäß, obwohl es 70 Jahre alt ist. Welch geniale Konstruktion!

[@R760-E2]

Lee is the guy that qualled me in the airplane. He and Doug gave me a job as an IP. I have much admiration for this man. RIP Doug. He flew some SH solos in the airplane, I treasure the few 2 ships we did s well.

[@Citizenfitz1]

75 years old but still beautiful and sharp looking.

[@spectatoringu]

My Dad LOVED to hear this whistle during WWII! He knew that some enemy was having a very bad day. I too am ever so grateful that all we hear is the P51's unique sound. Thanks for sharing with us all.

[@Xrm150]

+spectatoringu your welcome =)

[@HiredGun5]

What I liked? 1 - NO cheezy Star Wars theme music, or other such crap. 2 - No talking to interrupt the show sound. 3 - Most importantly, you captured the whistle sound that is unique to the Mustang. Behind enemy lines, that sound was often the first thing that was heard before all hell broke loose. And for many, that was the LAST thing that was ever heard! Good Job! :-)

[@Xrm150]

What I like...YOU and all my viewers! Love you guys! I make these videos for you all to enjoy!

[@HiredGun5]

I don't know where you are located, but we're going to have a jam-up show in Rome, Ga. in October at KRMG (Richard Russell Memorial Airport) featuring the T-Birds. P. Wagstaff is also confirmed for that show. I'm going to take both, my video camera and DSL. Will be posting on my page from that show in late October. Gonna need some spare batteries!

[@RandomActivities]

The Spitfire has that sound too. The Mustang is powered by an American-built variant of the Merlin.

[@rnichol22]

RandomActivities The sound you are referring to is the supercharger which is different to this sound

[@james1377c15]

The Boomerang also has a whistle like that.

[@7121976]

I flew that airplane last October !!! The best experience I’ve ever had!!! Can’t wait to get my hands on it again!!!

[@christopherwalker6056]

Thank you for posting this. My grandpa Walker, William Walker flew this plane in the US Army Air Corps (before the airforce) in WWII over Eastern Europe. He told me a few stories of him getting into some stressful situations and dog fights with very skilled German pilots. I am so thankful that he made it to the last squadron reunion to see some of his old comrades that flew along side him just before he passed away in 2015. To this day I think this plane is one of the fastest if not the fastest prop planes in existence. The P-51 Mustang had a top speed of 437 mph which is fast even for today's prop planes.

[@chazdaggett4194]

Gotta watch out for them bf 109s

[@guyfihi]

I wish my father could have seen this video, but he died 18 years ago. He was a Ranger/Scout in WW II. Operated behind enemy lines sometimes, saw lots of action, D-Day, Battle of The Bulge, Hurtgen Forrest etc. He probably saw many Mustangs just like this. I should have paid more attention to his stories. Thanks for making me think of him. Thanks to you and the people who restored this aircraft for preserving a little bit of our history. Sorry, I'm getting a little emotional now.

[@Xrm150]

guyfihi I thank you and your father for his service! I bet you could do a little research and find out what squad/unit he was with. With that info you might find others who were in it and might be able to find them on Facebook or some other form of social media. Heck...the unit/squad might have its own Facebook page itself.

[@guyfihi]

Xrm150 That is a good idea, I think one of my brothers or sisters might have his discharge papers. I am a Viet Nam vet myself, but I didn't see much action because I was in the Navy, although we did get shot at a few times. When I got out people didn't honor the vets like they do now, so at least that part has changed.

[@Rsjcn2000]

Finally a video without background music. Thank you for capturing that engine noise. Great video all around.

[@Xrm150]

Thank you!

[@DragerPilot]

The most beautiful airplane ever built, flown like it was meant to while singing a melodious roar.

[@user-ij5te6om1g]

[@bb4l881]

Precision Flying, Absolutely Beautiful!!!

[@rjeff753]

What a perfect way to end a Monday!! Nothing gets the blood pumping and the goosebumps the way a Mustang does!

[@grampahog]

I stood next to CRAZY Horse in 20010. The most beautiful P51 Mustang in the world! Thank-you for an Awesome video!

[@Hughjarce153]

What a glorious sound, I want one!

[@daleburrell6273]

...could you afford the upkeep?

[@davidkyle5017]

Can never get enough of watching this magnificent plane fly. There was Mustang flying at Dover AFB at their last show in '19 and I was mesmerized. Great post.

[@paulm5197]

What a gorgeous airplane! I once saw Chuck Yeager fly his WWII P-51 along with a wingman of similar vintage, chasing each other at incredible speeds and g-loads around Whitman Field at Oshkosh, WI. The airshow announcer said the airplanes were together 110 years old and the pilots 150. Yeager was 75 at the time; I saw him hop out of the P-51 cockpit like a 25-year-old. forget something in the cock[it and hop back in with admirable agility . A few years later I watched a dozen P-51s rev up in front of the crowd at the EAA convention at Oshkosh, the roar of those 1500 HP Rolls-Royce engines a beautiful choir. Later I walked past the P-52 parking area and saw polished aluminum wings and bodies in the light of sunset, gleaming gold. I'm in love!

... my full respect goes to this pilot and a big thank you to the camera man ... not forgetting that the "Mustang" is one of the most beautiful aircraft

[@Xrm150]

I'm glad you liked it.

[@mccaffreypaul]

Great plane, great flying, great cameraman, great to be alive.

[@henrys.6864]

That the rare H model I believe. The high vertical fin, the tilted bubble canopy and the straight main wing leading edge are a few give aways. What a beautiful aircraft!

[@michaellawrence5492]

That pilot is real good and plays with that P51 in the air mass just as fine as the best would expect.

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

OOOOH the sounds of freedom ! ! !

[@64MDW]

Just love all of the comments from the Royal Arm Chair Air Force. Great video of a classic aircraft flown by a superb pilot. Just stuff a sock in it and enjoy the show.

[@Xrm150]

RACAF lol thats great stuff

[@cornfedtuber]

Beautiful. It's well named because it looks like watching a horse at full gallop- poetry in motion and with the addition of a symphony of sound. I especially like those maneuvers with the clockwork precision... the starts 'here' and ends precisely 'there.' Perfect control and it's all manual skill of the pilot. Fantastic.

[@Brucev7]

The Pilot and the Plane are "One." Complete Harmony. Love the "whistle." Peace

[@Redspeare]

Most aircraft just fly. The P-51 makes love to the sky.

[@phippsa3]

That was an absolute masterclass in displaying an aircraft. Fantastic

[@randyporter3491]

Man !, NOTHING else sounds quite like a Mustang. It's truly a flying work of art. Thanks for a quality video, with no unnecessary commentary, or bowel-wrenching music.

[@Xrm150]

+Randy Porter your welcome =)

[@427lucky]

Had the honor of riding in and flying this beautifully maintained Mustang in 2011. Crazy Horse from Stallion 51 in Kissimmee, FL. Built in 1944. Never saw combat. It is an experience I will never forget! If your ever in the area, go check them out. They are very nice folks!!

[@daleburrell6273]

...BEAUTIFUL AIRPLANE, MAGNIFICENT FLYING!!!

[@qbsaber]

Great Vid of a great WW2 Fighter Aircraft P51 Mustang, yum yum,

[@m1garandm155]

Best p-51 pilot ever seen so far.

[@ColorUsBlue]

Outstanding Mustang skills by the pilot. That aircraft is literally an extension of his extremities! He was really pushing that Merlin at the top of the climb at 0:50 Some fluid was discharged from the cowl area for about a second right when he pulled over.

[@janetthompson6629]

What a beautiful sight!

[@robertbruce1887]

Great flying & sound!

[@4thArmoredVet]

Love the real sounds! Can hear the cooler whistling!

[@Xrm150]

+Mario John the way it should be =)

[@wingmanjim6]

It's not the "cooler", it is the inner two gun ports. In D/K Mustangs, these two guns were mounted further aft than the other four, necessitating a long blast tube between the barrel muzzle and leadig edge. Think of it as a pipe organ. If the Mustang has had the ports removed or faired over, or the blast tube removed, the sound is not present, nor is it evident on the four gun B/C models.

[@jayyoung5423]

The most beautiful and deadly propeller aircraft ever built...so sweet, thanks for this.

[@FoxtrotVids]

The whistle of that Turbosupercharger is just so beautiful!

[@Tveshag]

All About this plane is totally awsome,and when you hear this speciall sound of the MERLIN ENGINE you know you are at the right place ,Just beautiful. Thanks for sharing

[@MrDrunion]

Excellent job flying. The last time I saw a Mustang put through the paces like that was back in the 80's at the Cleveland Air Show. Bob Hoover made that Merlin sing. Haven't seen precise flying like that with a warbird until now. My complements to the pilot and the guy holding the camera. Wish I was there to see that.

[@alexenns3203]

Nothing but the sound of that beautiful Rolls Royce Merlin engine

[@PenzancePete]

[@nickatkinson5692]

Thanks to the British Merlin engine,

[@fredbenenati9214]

Lee is a consummate pilot, and I believe he has the most Mustang hours of any active pilot currently flying. I was blessed to have flown Crazy Horse 2 in August 2006 for an hour with John Posson there at Stallion 51, AND simultaneously flew formation with my twin brother who was in Crazy Horse with his instructor Eric. Have my own "best" P-51 video from three cameras mounted on the aircraft. Thanks again, Stallion 51!

[@stephensmart7388]

Gorgeous looking P51" Mustang Sweet Music to my ears Sounds Awesome Especially With Head Phones on Angeles on Our Shoulders ❤

[@Appalling68]

I thought I had seen most of the P-51 videos posted here. But I've never seen this one and what a treat! Thank you SO MUCH for posting this. I love this airplane and I love it's sound. Freakin AWESOME!!

[@fredbenenati9214]

Another great looking and sounding P-51 video: "Low pass Mustang Henley Ranch". Just type that into the KZbin search block. At ten seconds into the video is the lowest flying P-51 video I have ever seen. See if you agree.

[@michaeldoran6101]

Just what a video should be nothing but beautiful engine sound good job 👍🏻

[@flalawdog9463]

What a beautiful airplane. According to a video here of famed fighter pilot Robin Olds, the government was selling off P-51’s to individuals after WWII for a little over $1,000 ... that’s about $15,000 in today’s dollars. Can you imagine owning your own Mustang for 15 grand? (Of course, good luck affording the maintenance. lol) My 2017 Ford Mustang convertible cost twice that much, and while it’s fun to drive, it won’t do an eight-point roll. :-) Thanks for the great video.

[@RFKFANTS67]

Awesome video Thanks for sharing this. I love Mustangs with the D Day stripes

[@twinstu50]

The eight point hesitation roll was very well done, more so than the four point hesitation roll. As for everything else, OH!, I wish I could've been there, his work was stunning!.

[@ZepG]

twinstu50 I just watched this for the first time and I had the same thoughts, the 4 point was a bit sloppy but the 8 point was spot on.

[@annefricker4622]

What a great video and great plane. That's what Dad flew in WW II

[@Maxum97SeaDoo91]

Would Love a little more sound of that Merlin under the cowling but, sure is a good video of a skilled pilot making good use of the plane's abilities. Very smooth !

[@Maxum97SeaDoo91]

soaringtractor yes....the Packrd Merlin ;) Of course, as far away as this is ... it is difficult to get more sound without some extra equipment (also read as expensive....).

[@thebudkellyfiles]

Wow, no wonder it is the all time favorite WWII warplane. Amazing. And gorgeous. Thanks.

[@eddyamolinap2104]

CONGRATULATIONS Mr Xrm150 YOU HAVE A TALENT, I LIKE YOUR CLASICAL ORIGINALITY, THERE CAN BE MANY FAST AND POWERFUL AIRCRAFT BUT FOR ME THE MUSTANG IS NUMBER ONE,BECAUSE WITHOUT THE ONE WILL NOT EXIST THE OTHERS.

[@Xrm150]

+EDDY A MOLINA P I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@jetvalmonte4742]

You're right...world's greatest P51 video. I was getting the chills just watching those maneuvers so close to the deck! I bet if Patty Wagstaff or Julie Clark had a chance to fly that P51 I'd have a heart attack. Yes I have seen Julie's routine in her T34 and my heart probably stopped ten times during her routine. Thanks for posting.

[@Xrm150]

You are very welcome! Thanks for the comment.

[@wakeski523]

The pilot, Lee Lauderback has more hours than anyone in the world in the Mustang. He is known worldwide as the go to source for P-51 piloting, systems, training & safety. As much as I am a fan of PWags & Julie (I have met Patty actually at a function that Lee had at his house), no one can fly the Mustang quite like Lee. Patty has flown the Mustang before, to which extent I cannot speak. Visit Stallion51 in Kissimmee, FL where Crazy Horse is operated from and you will thank me :D Thanks to the OP for this awesome video.

[@Xrm150]

Your welcome!

[@jamsoilder]

Did you notice her name?

[@peterdelgado1223]

I know of this plane! It's crazy horse from Kissimmee Municipal Airport! I love this plane! Its clean and well taken care of! The plane is owned by a Warbird Museum and they keep up with it's repairs its literally the best P-51 mustang in flying condition in FL. imho( in my honest opinion). And the pilot is a real down to earth guy! so this mustang wont be making any holes in the ground because the pilot is very experienced! :)

[@Xrm150]

+peter delgado That's why he is called Mr Mustang =)

Ya know....I have no idea what the "Doppler effect" is. I need to look that up...when I see "Doppler" I think weather stations radar =) I am glad you enjoyed the video though. Watch this one also...It is so good it looks like a radar guided camera filmed it =D kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHXJh6qKhpKFnqc

[@lostinthewild602]

Absolutely beautiful aircraft!

[@BlackSheepUSMC]

This is a trainer conversion of the '51, and thus has no gun ports. The whistle is caused by airflow through the radiator/oil cooler scoop exiting the rear vent. The amount of/lack of whistle is dependent upon the vent's position. The Corsair and Bearcat whistle as well- also due to airflow through the oil cooler ducts located in the wing roots.

[@Network-Mike]

What an amazing sound!
