The Sea Fury was the fastest warbird ever. - Авто та транспорт
First Piston a\c to shoot down a mig15,in Korea,it got 2 actually. top plane. Saw one V a Sabre F86...Fury recorded 2 hits...sabre couldnt catch him....out turned and out run ... smoke still affected by vortices and his wake a minute and longer after he passed that way...shows how a\c turbulence takes so long to dissipate . 4:28 top vid m8
Thanks watching and your comment mate
Nothing with a prop will catch her❤️ absolutely beautiful!
You got to be making most of this stuff up.
@@Warbirds bull crap... self induced allucination ...
@@raymondjones8 bull crap... self induced allucination ...
Is it just me that gets emotional hearing these old warbirds ?❤
When I was a paperboy back in the early sixties, pairs of these beasts would head out to sea at low level right over my head. I lived near a Navy unit at Hurn airport, near Bournemouth.
Woah - nice.
Lucky kid to have seen and heard that! And, you'll never forget it I'll bet.
Huge Johnson The unit also had Hawker Sea Hawks which sometimes sortied at low level paired with a Sea Fury. Quite a weird thing to see.
@@NigelKendall I'll bet it was! I've just spent three years at a company here in the U.S., and our facility is situated about half a football pitch away from the main gate of an Air Reserve base, that happens to also be a main base for the giant Galaxy C-5 aeroplanes. Every last one that had its engines replaced in this last go-round of updates, has had to pass through this base, not to mention that they are in and out constantly anyway, so, I can kind of understand how you felt seeing your birds at home. I am still amazed to see these giants, seemingly stationary in the air as they come in! So big!
An absolutely stunning aircraft, she was total piston engined perfection in my opinion and for a carrier based aircraft to have this title is nothing short of phenomenal. 🇬🇧🇬🇧✌✌
A Sidney Camm masterpiece. The ultimate piston powered fighter. Beautiful noise.🇬🇧
Ha "beautiful noise" You ever heard one up close? The Centaurus is une of the quietest engines out there... not that it's a bad engine, only the quietest... A Merlin sounds good and a Pratt 2800... but a Centaurus??
@@Yosemite-George-61 True . That’s why it’s beautiful. If loudness is your thing a Griffon at full chat takes some beating. Be interesting to see what the Napier Sabre sounds like when the Typhoon restoration is up and running
@@mickboakes7023 sounds like 4 Merlins tied thogether with wire...there's a video on youtube I think. My favourite engine of all times... (I used to belong to the Typhoon Restoration Thrust) Reportedly thou... the loudest aircraft piston engine was the Crecy... look it up...
Love that radial growl, starting up they remind me of a diesel train: Power
@@mickboakes7023 Sound of a Sabre? Here you go:

Awesomeness in flight, perfection in landing. Breataking to watch. Thank you for sharing this magnificent machine and it's most capable pilot with us. My sole regret is not not being present to actually see it being flown. 👍
Awesome aircraft, brilliant photography and sound... You've set the bar very high, sir.
Gorgeous aircraft, great sound. A piece of aeronautical art really.
nathanmccreery Funny but this plan has a replaced engine, an American radial !!! DUUUH!!!!!!
She's one sexy aircraft. The sound is so brutal yet refined
I wish my car would sound like that
Never mind it has a 3350 not a Centaurus...
you've never heard the sound of a true Bristol Centaurus engine then? if you think this sounds refined you need to re-tune your ears. the Centaurus engine makes this sound primitive.
@@davidmarshall1259 BUT the original Centaurus junk engine is Long gone replaced by a reliable American engine to fly !!!!! DUUUUHH!!!!!!!
@@Yosemite-George-61 WRONG !!! WRONG !!!! ALL F'n WRONG !!!!!! This has a PW R2800, ie F4U Corsair, F6F Hell Cat and P47 Thunderbolt !!! DUUUUUH!!!!!!!!
Wonderful to see the Royal Australian Navy get a look in! 🇭🇲
Hawker was an Australian
@@benwilson6145 The Sea fury was designed by Sydney Camm who worked for Hawker Aircraft both British in response to a requirement of the Royal Navy.
@@xvdd1 What is your point? I think you must be incredibly arrogant. I did not say who designed the Sea Fury, Harry Hawker was killed in an aircrash in 1921.
@@benwilson6145 You posted a 4 word comment on a video about the the Hawker Sea fury saying Hawker was Australian did you not complete your original post ?
@@xvdd1 I did , another arrogant post from "I know better". Now you "know" that I didn't complete my original post.
That airframe really carried speed out of the dive, and flows into the aerobatic with power! 👍🏼Dig the whine cutting thru the Air.🌬🛩
Great looking aircraft, great sound!👍🏻 love the way the smoke trails hung around in various shapes 👍🏻
Champion plane & footage - my father in law was an aircraft wing designer for Hawker & would have been proud of this share & effort to keep memory alive !
Thanks for your lovely comment. Enjoyed
That thing crankes! Beautiful sound, what a beast, love it!
It is awesome to hear that giant engine with so many pistons coming to life! And top notch video for having no dumb ass music to obscure the sound of such a lovely engine waking up!
P.S., If anyone could explain the reasons that the camera, and I assume it's to do with "frames per second" or some kind of crap that I don't know about, but why does the camera cause a moving object to appear as if its direction of rotation changes? I reckon with a film type movie camera, it is the speed of the individual frames passing by that causes the rotational effect. But, with digital stuff, haven't designers been able to compensate for the effect? If anyone can explain it simply so a dumb ass like me can understand, I'd sure appreciate it. Thank you.
Yes, but its not a Centaurus, that has been fitted with an Amercan engine. Centaurus had a 5 blade prop and turned the other way.
@@davidjulian8536 Still, sounds "alive", no? I love hearing any old school engines starting up, whether an old 12 cylinder auto, twin cylinder motorcycle (my favorite! 45 degree V Twin!) and all of the rest. I've been lucky to have lived most of my life within a very short drive to two well known auto racing facilities, and got to see and hear a wide variety of engines on a regular basis. I've spent nearly all of my working life in the automotive business, due in no small part to those cars getting me so interested.
I wonder if it’s the same effect as you used to see with spoked wheels , in western films (mainly), where they appeared to be going backwards. I always understood it was something to do with 'persistence of vision' in the observer's Mk1 eyeball. The change of direction appears to be at certain rotational speeds. I hasten to add that I’m no expert.
@@oastie3 I thought it had to do with frames per second, compared to the rotational speed. If that is so, one would think that the digital cameras would have a feature to sort that out. In any case, thank you for the input, as it is another avenue that I can explore.
Hi Hugh, I only found about this by "happen stance". I was in some training at the General Electric turbine factory many years ago and had an engineer come into the class and he brought up this subject. The phenomena has a name.... "Standing Wave In Space". You can google it and try to understand the concept, which the engineer admitted was a bit challenging even to him. For reasons I have long forgotten, it is something you want to try to avoid in a turbine with many rows of blades or buckets. You see the same thing with bicycle spokes or even a house fan. But I can tell you for sure, it is not something caused by camera/filming issues. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the amazing footage
And for the sound above all
Thx watching mate
WOW What a stunning flying machine and display THANK YOU 👍
The best I’ve ever seen the rate of climb of that plane is phenomenal and the sound is to die for!! Well done to the pilot flying it awesome job ☝️
F8F-2 Bearcat out climbed it !!!!
Thank you for the video beautiful quality and that sound mmmmm
I saw Guido Zuccoli fly his Sea Fury right down the centre line of Ruthven St. in Toowoomba during a Carnival Of Flowers parade. Gob smacking how that engine noise thumped into your chest. Vortices were spinning off his wing tips too. He was really giving it to the old girl. Wonderful plane.
A Bearcat was just restored at a airport by me. I still ru outside to see it when i can hear it coming !!
Amazing plane, great pilot and one of the best aviation videos ever
Thank you sir
So powerful it doesn't bother to take off with flaps.
True thanks watching
It just beats the air into submission
........and 3/4 throttle.
Just like a Cessna.
@@jamescaley9942 LOL, that was funny.
That was awesome! Thanks for sharing Rainer!
Thumbs up!
Thanks for watching Bob !
What great video. You really capture the essence of this magnificent machine.
What a sound, what a power, what an aircraft - absolutely awesome 😍
Awesome Video and Sound quality, well done and thank you very much!
glorious...............a time when the UK could actually build it's own aircraft.
Does this one have the ubiquitous Wright R-3350 conversion?
When aircraft were cheap to make
@@nobby4358 well they seem to make aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines which are far more expensive.
@@pauldulworth2768 This one has the Wright R-2800.
@@xvdd1 thank you. Best of British and American, once again, like the Shelby Cobra.
Thanks ! brilliant photography and sound !!
beautiful aircraft - thank you for posting!
First flown in February 1945 in semi navalised form and lacking folding wings. A second fully navalised prototype flew eight months later powered by a Bristol Centaurus 18 radial rated at 2,550 hp at 4000 feet. The first example of the initial production version ,the Sea Fury F Mk 10 entered Royal navy Service in the following spring The eventual FB Mk 11 supplemented the 4 20 mm cannon with external ordnance.615 of this particular aircraft were build before production ceased in November 1950.it would have undoubtedly given the FW 190 and Zero a very hard time! An awesome aircraft for its day and a natural extension of Hawkers brilliant Hurricane,
Typhoon and Tempest (The latter two wiped out tiger tanks attacking directly from behind with cannon, bombs and rockets)The Tempest's maximum speed was 466 mph and the heavier Typhoon 408 mph. Sadly the engine development was abandoned when
Napier failed to persist with the sabre 4 engine. Strangely the Naval Fury didn't quite march the Tempest's amazing 466mph.
Großartig, das Warbird Highlight für mich in der Saison 2018! Schönes Video 👍
Dank Dir . Freu mich auf die 2019er Saison
Absolutely awesome video! Thank you!
👍👍👍
Wow. Thanks for putting this on here.
Thank you for this fantastic video!
Thanks liking
FANTASTIC DEMO. The tip smokers are amazing...never skipped a beat.
An engine with wings!
And guns or smoke canisters
Great video and sound. Well done sir.
Fantastic Video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks visiting my channel !
God these smoke generators are very efficient aren't they? Brilliant display sir! Bloody good video and sound! Top video!
Can't help thinking about Frank Sanders at Oshkosh when I was a kid. First time I ever saw a Sea Fury and he did the wingtip streamer thing too. I still loves me a Grumman Bearcat though.
It's a British 'plane.
Awesome sound!
Magnificent aircraft second to none.
Beautiful colour scheme
What a wonderful sound!
Ty
I know one thing, it's faster then the Ercoupe I fly! 😲🤣 Awesome video, beautiful plane.
Incredible,awesome and amazing,enough said.
What a great aircraft, pilot, and video. 101% × 3 of each issue.
What a machine! Outstanding!
Excellent presentation!!!! WOW!!!!!
Thx
Excelente video, belas imagens. Toda máquina voadora é fascinante, desde um simples avião de papel até a complexidade de um UFO.
Thanks watching and commenting
My word what an awesome beast of an aircraft!
Looks like a real joy to fly.
My favorite plane. Hello from California
Hello California🤩
A bit late to the party, but nice sound quality & thanks for not gumming up the works with music...it IS music!👍
Thx mate
Awesome landing approach... touched down in the first 50 meters of grass ...!!!!!!
Glad you liked it
one can do that with 2 miles of flat land in front of the air strip....lol
Maximuspadus : I betcha you are not a fighter qualified and your entire frame of reference is fro a Tiger Moth or a KIT FOX...!!!
Alexander Reimer, and I betcha you failed comprehensive reading analysis in high school too. I simply made a statement that with no obstacles to clear on the approach it is very easy to land within 50 meters of the end of the runway. That's all.
That plane was at Orange AFB Airshow (France) on 25 and 26 of May 2019. Great !
great
The DH Hornet was another forgotten hot rod!
True and also nice
Wicked bit of kit a Hornet
Vasco Ribeiro I agree. Shame there’s not being one rebuilt somewhere.🇬🇧
@@mickboakes7023 they rotten. There is a project to build one in NZ, I think the same company that rebuilds Mosquitos.
There is a Hornet being g rebuilt in New Zealand, by Pioneer I think
well it certainly appeared to be faster than a F8F Bearcat. Beautifully done.
thanks watching and commenting
That is. Awesome. Thank you
🙏
My favorite radial fighter is the F8F Bearcat. I really like the Hawker Tempest for an inline motor but it was plagued with engine pblms
Ooooh. That engine…❤
PW R2800 !!!!!!
Wow, a GREAT AIRCRAFT! John P.
I saw one race at Reno in 1970. It was the fastest plane then, but has been superceded since by souped up American planes, Bearcats, like Rarebear, and Mustangs with Griffons. Now you don't see them anymore. Don't know why. I guess if you love plane racing the Reno air races are like Mecca, as Oshkosh is for everything else. Maybe some day, by 2022 Covid will be under control. Love to all and take care!
one of my favourite aircraft ,wish there was a Sabre engine Tempest flying !
yeah---but who would risk flying it?
@@MrDaiseymay I understand Kermit Weeks has one and several engines, no one will work on or certify the engines though as I am led to believe.
Splendid film work of a splendid aircraft. It is extremely sad that we live in an age where most of the film we have of these magnificent machines is not very good. Soon enough these last flying types will fly no more, so really its only work like this that will actually capture these planes and provide the long term film of them. Keeping them in the air must be very costly, and spares and support must be hard to come by. We should enjoy these moments - in the future they will no longer exist in terms of seeing it live.
Beautiful aircraft and graceful aerobatics shows off its power and speed. I wonder how the Sea Fury and a Grumman Bearcat would compare. Both came at the end of piston-engine fighter design. It would be a big thrill to fly either one.
Of Course
Probably the best commentator of the Bearcat V Seafury debate was Eric Brown, he stated that both were at the pinnacle of piston carriers air craft development… both were superb planes and any difference in combat would be due to the skill of the pilots….. he loved flying both.
Very pretty bird...got to had to the Brits! The Spitfire, Mosquito....sweet!
awesome times of engineering
I can see FW-190, Hellcat and Mustang heritage in that thing
Don't forget the Buccaneer!
Gorgeous!
Goosebumps hearing that engine.....
That AMERICAN MADE PW R 2800 ????? FYI the engine is NOT the Centaurus !!!!! !
Beautiful
I'm a kind of British heretic in that I think that we produced lots of planes during wwii that were way more charismatic than the iconic but underpowered and underarmed Spitfire mk1. Our later planes, i.e. the Griffin Spitfire, the Tempest, the Mosquito, The Tempest ii and the Sea Fury were just about the coolest piston driven planes ever. The plane in this video really is a thing of beauty, especially in its blue livery.
Thanks for your Post . Enjoyed a lot 👍
I'm very pleased. Thank you for posting great videos.
Was the Spitfire I under powered by 1940 standards?
kinglear BUT.......this plane has an American engine !!! 4 blade plop right turning, PW R2800 or Wright R3350 !!!!!! DUUUUUHH!!!!
*super show !* 🔝👍😎
Toll mit der Kamera eingefangen.
Danke Horst - Schönes Wochenende !
@@Warbirds gerne. Schönes Wochenende auch für dich 😎
Superb!
Thx
A beauty indeed!
I was looking down a surprisingly long list of WW2 piston powered aircraft and the Sea Fury and Fury were the first significant aircraft as far as service given and speed attained. Surprisingly there were a huge number of German planes on the list before the fury, maybe they had their eggs in too many baskets. (Some were very pretty aircraft, not an accolade many received) So maybe the title of fastest is deserved even if a “Guinness book” might not agree
I can hear the bearings.What an AMAZING SOUND.
Thanks watching !
The RAN used to operate these aircraft from the Carrier HMAS Sydney during the Korean War and later from HMAS Vengeance,they were stationed at HMAS Albatross naval air station in Nowra,about an hours drive from where I lived,It is a helicopter base now.
Awesome beast !
Awesome!
Thx Red 13
I remember as a lad in Christchurch, NZ, seeing a Sea Fury in action at an airshow in Christchurch (NZ). It was an awesome sight (and sound). I agree with the comment re. the lauding of of the Spitfire to the neglect of other planes. The Spitfire had (in my opinion) two fatal flaws that stayed with it forever: (1) the narrow track undercarriage that could prove fatal in sudden cross winds at landing or if the engine was gunned too suddenly and too soon, and (2) serious lack of range. This meant it could not serve in any other than a defensive role or in cross-channel tactical missions (similar to Typhoons and Tempests). It wasn't until the Spitfire Mk XIV on (with the Griffon engine) that it performed up to the standard of (say) the Tempest or Mustang. Then it still had the flaws described above. The writer also left out the Mosquito, in my opinion one of the greatest and most iconic warplanes ever built and I'm very glad that a number have finally been restored to flying condition, one right here in Aotearoa New Zealand. Sadly, I think all the NZ Sea Furys have been sold to overseas buyers, hopefully not to end up in air race events with Wright R3350 engines.
As a lad I had the privilege to be involved in the restoration of a P51D Mustang at a farm inland from Christchurch. That was a culmination of a 25 year full-on effort after it was mothballed and eventually sold by the RNZAF. Then finally in 1967 it was towed to Christchurch airport at Harewood (minus its wings), reassembled and flown for the first time in over two decades. This was my one lasting vivid memory and one that still gives me goosebumps at takeoff with the sound of its Packard-built Merlin engine. When it flew over Christchurch in its white paint job and Mobil decals, I could tell right away from its sound and speed that it was the Mustang I helped (no matter how humbly) get flying again. God, it could go!! I would say, though, that the Sea Fury (or Tempest II for that matter) could give it a real run for its money and they were most probably faster. Sadly, it was sold to a US buyer and became "Cripes Amighty" which people on this site might recall.
Yes, the Sea Fury (and the Centaurus engine) together formed a formidable team. At startup and taxiing, that monstrous 18-cylinder radial produced an almost rough, highly tuned sound and was very reminiscent of the sound of the Bristol Freighters I used to hear taxiing as a child during my visits to CHCH airport. The Bristol Freighter had two 14 cylinder Bristol Hercules engines. As a specialist carrier-borne naval aircraft, again the Sea Fury fitted a role that the Spitfire could never achieve. So my vote is for the Sea Fury over the Spitfire, hands down!
Thanks mate beeing here
this particular aircraft doesn't have a Centaurus fitted
@@Spacklatard Nope PW R2800 !!!! American power !!!
Top Video - mittendrin statt nur dabei !!! Danke und Gruß, Frank
Danke Frank
It is hard to put it into words, but there are many aircraft which appear to be "working" to stay in the air, while the Sea Fury seems to fly without the slightest effort.
Nice 3-point landing.
That might be a Sea Fury sorta, but that is an all American engine!!
Awesome....
Thanks Steve ! Have a nice Sunday
Any idea when/where this vid was shot? That Fury was wearing Royal Australian Navy colours and marking - red kangaroos in the roundels!
You tube experience : whenever you see "ever" in a YT video title you can be sure the statement that goes it it is just plain wrong. Thanks for the upload.
Weren't the P-47M/N, and some variants of the P-51, a bit faster than the Sea Fury?
That’s awesome
What a beauty she is!
A great feast for all our senses----BUT, where IS this ??
Gorgeous..
Where was this video taken please. I can see it's marked up as anRoyal Australian Navy plane but was this taken on Australia? Looks a little too green to me for OZ. NZ maybe but probably in the US I would guess.
Simply beautiful plane! One of the very best ever designed. Lucky man to be flying it.
Soooooooooo effortless....
Bravo!
👍
I've never seen a plane with such persistent wing vortices in my life. Jesus, you can see that thing coming from miles away.
They're smoke canisters. 😉
From the folks who brought us the Hurricane.
All well and good. What are the stats?
