Oh my gosh the Pratt and Whitney has such a beautiful growl to it, which for me makes this plane one of the most powerful planes back then, hey let's go Whistling Deaths
Ferocious! That initial blast from the Pratt and Whitney R 2800 Double Wasp engine...raw whirling radial sound never to be duplicated...what a flying machine! Wow!
No matter what view you have of each aircraft from WW2, each one played a significant role in the war and helped secure our freedoms we all enjoy today. The Corsair was a engineering millstone during the war for sure and will be remembered for generations to come.
Nice clean start! Sounds good. Now, for all those that thought that "lumpy idle" sounded familiar, it is. Harley Davidson v-twin engines are built around the same tech as this 18 cylinder rotary engine...with 16 less cylinders.
@Dustin Montgomery the drag is made up with the corsair being made to be more aerodynamic at higher speeds and makes less drag then for example a hellcat
I went to the airport to rent a plane and fly, and I did not know that this Corsair was to be arrive with a B-25 Mitchell at Szeged. It was a surprise to me. I was walking on the airfield toward this Corsair, beacause I had never seen a Corsair before. As I arrived, I was told to stand aside, because it was going to start up the engine immediately. I just took my cellphone out of my pocket and started recording this video. I did not think about the settings, did not have the time for that, and I did not have any other device. Sorry. :-) I did not plan to upload this to youtube, but I'm happy that I did it, and 123 thousand people have seen it and more than 900 liked it despite this imperfectness. :-)
Truth be told. I always felt like that engine was on the verge of breaking...the startup and idle sound atrocious. Always about to throw a rod or piston.
1) is that an inertia starter? 2) did it take that long to start an engine during the war, or is that old age? 3) did Marines ever fold the wings of their land based planes?
@@searkpslendorman The Austrian way, actually, since it's Red Bull... And yes, I hate the logos, too. But I rather have the company that pays for the continued flight of the plane slap their logo on it than not having it flying at all.
Yeah you're right we should just make sure these old war plans rust away into nothingness because the majority of people can't ever afford to sustain one of these planes. Unless you're willing to cowboy up and pay for it, I suggest you keep the complaints to yourself you dumb boomer.
They MUST DO THE RED BULL PAINT FOR THE ADVERTISEMENT TAX WRITE OFF. BUSINESS! 101. These planes are investments or money holders at 2 to 4 million they cost roughly 1200hr to fly just for fuel they only make money by appreciating in value or tax write off.
Nothing beats the sound of a radial engine, music to my ears

The best looking and most versatile aircraft in WWII
Hi bi folding wings?
@@franciscogilberlindosantossous Yup, folding wing's so they can be on aircraft carriers.
A masterpiece of aviation.

I did not know that!
The f4u is the best looking fighter the USA ever made
Freaking love corsairs
The Merlins do have that elegant snarl, however, these big radials simply exude power in a way they inline engines cannot match.
@Dustin Montgomery the drag is made up with the corsair being made to be more aerodynamic at higher speeds and makes less drag then for example a hellcat
I always felt the same about the Merlin in-line. Unmatched
@@bill2953 A Merlin purrs, a Griffon snarles and a 2800 goees "potato, potato, potato.....
@@tempestmkiv Hahaha it sure does.
That's the sweetest sound in the world
Unless your Japanese
@@Stricker-ng7fv good point. Lol
Not for the ones who had to face it !
@@raoulvolfoni1800 fuck them
Beautiful to see and hear this classic warbird...
日本人には理解できないデザインとアイデアだけどアメリカ人って優雅だよな?
Great plane wish I had one
what a pretty ship
I love you F4U-4 !!!!
Pure beauty and sweet music!
The purr of the radial engine
Smells good
I wonder if this the super Corsair model that sports the P&W R-4360 28 cylinder Wasp Major engine? I could listen to the sound of that engine all day!
Sameee ! Eargasm
No, this is an F4U-4. But here’s what you’re looking for: ua-cam.com/video/saBq4omgJCA/v-deo.html
awesome,thanks!
What a gorgeous thing this is😀👏
In some ways equal or better than the P-51.
Being carrier based made it a priceless asset.
How dare you
When a P-51’s wings fold, you’re screwed.
Absolutely not
The radial engine was one.
Wait Redbull was a US navy sponsor back in the 1940's? who knew? lol
This video always reminds me the flight of the phonix movie 1969
My dad fought in one in iwo jima Lt. Commander Louis Dale
Dumb question. How does a pilot get lucky enough to fly old Warbirds like these?
Money.
I always thought that planes moved with the throttle from their own props when on land. I didn't know that the wheels actually have traction
sorry, can't follow... they have differential braking, thats all they got on the wheels. they move under thrust, and never backwards.
Wasn't it called, "Whistling Death"?
Apparently these are really hard to start with out flooding or setting on fire Because the engine is upsidedown or something.
Half is
Szegeeeed!
why red bull on the plane ???
nice sound...
✈️💪🌠💫 and powerful Warriorbird
Why were the wings up? was there a lack of space?
Bi,folding wings?
That’s one big prop!
And that's the reason for the gull wings.
Why do you guys vid these in high-speed? It doesn't look right (spinning propeller).

Sublimes
Made possible by the Mechanics...we are the last step before the piolt does the thing.....
Poor thing let her fly,
War Thunder brought me here.
This red bull marking is horrible on this beautiful warbird
Yep.
Poor little lambs who have gone astray... baa....baa....baa....
put this in a miata
Is that a Latvian flag on the tail? lol
No. Austrian. (OE-EAS, below the horizontal stabilizer)
it is perverse to adorn these warbirds with business paint- disgusting.
That is capitalism, the American Way.
@@searkpslendorman The Austrian way, actually, since it's Red Bull...
And yes, I hate the logos, too. But I rather have the company that pays for the continued flight of the plane slap their logo on it than not having it flying at all.
Step up to the plate and sponsor the cost of flying this plane. Bring lots of cash as the operating cost are well above $1000/flight hour
Yeah you're right we should just make sure these old war plans rust away into nothingness because the majority of people can't ever afford to sustain one of these planes. Unless you're willing to cowboy up and pay for it, I suggest you keep the complaints to yourself you dumb boomer.
Nah it looks great, and the company is paying to keep this history alive and airborne
A Japanese nightmare.
Na várj egy másodpercet.......
Azt' mire?
Beautiful airplane, but get that f***** red bull logo off of it. Dont care if its theirs.
