Apart from saying 'aircrafts' instead of 'aircraft' as a plural, that was really quite good.

I wouldn't have wanted to be on the ground and in the path of the Russian ground attack formations. I attempted to imagine myself as a Soviet pilot back in 1943. The Illyushin-22 Sturmoich, flying in formations very low to the ground. The U.S. gave Russia .50 cal machine guns specifically for the Il-22. A tough workhorse!

what song in the first vid

stole his plane ,, what a ledgend

27:00 HERMAN GOERING ..future commander of the Luftwaffe. I bet I am the only one who spotted him !

7:30 and some nerds still talk about tone wood, when the electric guitar OG literally only put the two pieces of wood there so it would look like a guitar. Some will argue about he type of wood, the shape, if its hollow or not. When this dude made one literally with a slab of plywood.

I've been introduced 2 WW1. aerial combat after having life saving operation 35 years ago by "The Blue Max". I was told that I needed a hobby 2 take my mind off the pair, chose building WW1 aircraft and I'm still building! I've got 4,900 of them carefully researched painted in their colours!! I really enjoyed ur film,well done great job!

I think I go with the mercurial and capricious Stalin myself - apparently he was beaten by his drunken and violent father hence his withered arm....

Who was worse - Stalin or Hitler? Hmm, tricky one....

Another Stalinist atrocity that we have come to expect....

Eureka !

No need to engage other experienced flyers unless deemed necessary.

Baron liked to pick off weak links first

We seen em comin'

Dangerous business

The Fokker Dr.1 was both a succesful and unique design, but your point about the wings is true. However, the Fokker designers handled this by making a rather different wing design that it's pre-production version, which worked. Just a little too late to make a difference. But, therefore it was given to a lot of top aces, who shot down quite big numbers of enemy airplanes in the Fokker Dr.1 Were they just good pilots? No, the Fokker Dr.1, when handled properly and with the right amount of skill, was a very good fighter aircraft. And lastly, the red baron not only flew the Dr.1, he also shot down 19 aircraft over the course of three weeks, which is partly do to the great airplane, he flew. The list of Fokker Dr.1 aces, that had most of their kills in a Fokker Dr.1 is huge. The best example of that is the pilot Josef Jacobs who shot down 30 enemy airplanes in the Fokker Dr.1. I dont know why you irrationally hate the Fokker Dr.1, but get your facts straight.

I believe I read in WW1 American Ace Edward Rickenbacker's auto biography....WW1 Ace was 10 kills. Until America entered the war an the number was reduced to 5 kills so Americans could get a share of Aces also.

Fokker wasn’t a German factory but a Dutch one. Anthony Fokker was the person who started the Fokker company

Having lived in Hawaii all my life, I must mildly protest that you didn’t mention that is was Hawaiian Steel Guitar playing that inspired the Frying Pan Lap Steel Guitar. In fact, the original name was the Rickenbacker Electro-Hawaiian Steel Guitar. Credit where credit’s due. The ukulele, steel guitar, and electric steel guitar are Hawaii’s biggest contributions to music. 😊🤙✌️

Stalin did what it takes to protect CCCP, in all sides we had/have cruelty, like killing Alan Turing just cause he was gay, even after all he did for science and uk.

Had the French and British combined there tanks The ft17 The British mk1 Ship designers and builders must have had there say in the land ship reality

Can’t fix roads or bridges in 2024 but our governments never had problems figuring out a way to kill millions of people throughout the years

ah yes, the aircraft with the most losses in history. It goes down in history, as a legend of death, along with the most destroyed tank in history, the t34.

Very interesting list, though I also prefer to extend the end of classical antiquity to 628 AD.

richard pearse in nz flew before the wright bros

Ever heard of grburke guitars the tuning fork there’s some history I love my grandpa he created the first allume ready for the next piece? Check out grburke guitars

The DR1 was built to combat the Sopwith triplane, which the Germans feared.

Tell the TRUTH about WWI pilots!!! They COULDN'T FLY everyday from the diarrhea the Caster Oil in the engine exhausts gave them! Every-other day was murder on your guts! Number one cause of death: Not the enemy, but MECHANICAL FAILURE. An ESTIMATED 65% of pilots and air crew (on both sides)!!! The Lafayette Escadrille lost 78% of their aircrews from mechanical failure, which enraged Americans. READ THEIR BOOK! Only ONE of the Original 32 pilots lived to be a US Aviator, and since he was BLACK he wasn't allowed! He joined the Armie de Air (French Air Force) and finished the war with 23 victories, and NEVER returned to the US. "The Black Angel of Death".

9:06 for a level

Great video! Thanks so much

Bit of fun trivia: Les Paul's real name is Lester Polfus.

Finally, someone who pronounces german correctly. Vielen Dank!

Rubbish, even to day Many 2024, many , many , thousands of fine quality pictures of WW One war pictures made by airplane exist . all most all by the British.

Great info & well presented,

You're very welcome… And thank you for sharing this with all of us it was very interesting. Big thumbs up from me

a very well researched and presented WW1 documentary.

the Wright brothers did not invent the airplane they invented the first type of aileron bending the wing

These early tanks always have a creepy aesthetic to them compared to modern tanks. I think it’s their crude construction and the context that there was literally no other machine like them, even aircraft were over 10 years old by then so it creates something quite alien in nature.

I might be retarded , but I see a use for extremely simple , 35:26 cheap semi disposable & organic ( environmentally friendly ) aircraft, that can operate from unprepared runways that can loiter for long periods of time behind the front lines to strafe dones & cruise missiles. Also with the potential to launch drones or other missiles. Simple & cheap , resistant against electric warfare , could even use electronic warfare weapons & if running on diesel could potentially even use a wireless ignition. Pilots could even bail out if targeted ( out sourced warnings ) ????

Jesus loves God bless!!!

WOW!! An English voice on youtube for a change!!

Loved your narration, but the music at times gets in the way. Try lower it a little bit.

what are brits?

Also I recognize Ton Koopman's rendition of Little Fugue anywhere ;)

I don't speak German or French but damn you sound so native when you pronounce the names

The devastating effectiveness of the sturmovic was facilitated by the Soviet acceptance of ULTRA and the crushing effect on Nazi logistics and movement.Thanks to ULTRA Stalin was right when he said this plane was the life and breath of the Red Army.

This plane was the A-10 Warthog of its time.

IŁ-2/IŁ-2m3!!

I believe the name "flying circus" came from the fact that they frequently moved around by train like a circus NOT because of the paint schemes.
