No music bed, no voiceover. Perfect!

no airshow is ever really complete without a P-40 FLYING TIGER. magnificent aircraft.
they'er all beautiful but damn that skyraider
The A-1 Skyraider..respect! Useless trivia - the A-1 was the first combat aircraft used simultaneously by the USAF, Navy, and Marines!
"You can run, but, you'll only die tired!"
Lots of beautiful airplanes but for my money a P-40 steals the spotlight every time she takes to the skies. There probably aren't many air worthy examples of this great warbird flying so many thanks and lots of gratitude to all of the dedicated conservationists who keep 'em flyin'.
According to Wookieepedia, there are 28 P-40s still flying, though personally I'd have put it a lot higher than that, S they seem to be everywhere
@@AndreiTupolev Thanks for the update. I'm delighted to hear there are that many still flying. Most of these pre war designs went to the scrap heaps in large numbers after the war ended so not many made it into their dotage or into the hands of collectors. The P-40, if memory serves, was one of the few pre war designs to remain in production throughout the war so maybe that is part of the reason so many are still around.
@@AndreiTupolev 32 in the world, 23 in the US 👍👍
The Warhawk was always my favorite WWII fighter. The Mustang,Corsair,and Lightning get a lot of credit,and rightfully so,but in the early days of the war the P-40 was the workhorse fighter,and when flown properly,could hold it's own against any enemy fighter.
@@stevemastnick5034 Tactics made ALL the difference. Chennault realized both the weaknesses of the P-40, and its strengths... as well as those of the Japanese aircraft. He instilled into the Flying Tiger's pilots to NEVER attempt to dogfight one-on-one. And, they were to ALWAYS fly in a lead/wingman formation. The favored tactic was to come down from above in a high speed dive and fly through. Then, if needed, to peel out, gain the altitude advantage again, and dive through for a second or third pass. The Flying Tigers amassed an amazing record. Sadly, the Army Air Corp (Force) and Navy brass took forever to listen to him and change their tactics away from dogfighting. Even the P-38 Lightning's used the tactics Chennault devised. The second best P-38 pilot was shot down... because he tried to dogfight to run up his score, instead of following the rules. Yes, the F6F and F4U and P-38 were better aircraft. However, by the time they arrived in theater... much of the very experienced Japanese pilots had already been taken out by the F4F, P-39, and P-40. And the P-40, and the F4F, were still in production at the end of the war. That says something about their ability to still be useful.
How lovely to be completely free of an loudmouth commentators shouting away in the background.
Those Sea Fury low level flybys are mindblowing!
That Sea Fury sounds beautiful! Really graceful bird.
Вы не родственник ТОМУ Туполеву?
Ain't nothin better than putting on the headphones and cranking it up when these types of videos pop up. Like music to my ears.
Those low passes by the P40 and Seafury were amazing! Crank the sound! Thanks for posting!
Amazing each engine sound to the keen ear is identifiable
Hopefully one day there will be a stuka
There are but the sirens are too dangerous to run as it’s dangerous to dive bomb for show
Awesome warbirds.
The seafury one beautiful airplane...a true *hot rod* of the skies....keep them flying!!!!!
Nice to see clear footage of the Planes. It was nice to see the P-40. My Uncle flew a P-40 during the War. He was killed in the Pacific.
Great to see the CAF P-40 flying again. Love the new livery. Can’t wait to see it at AirVenture.
A bit of a Rodney Dangerfield of WW2 fighters 'Doesn't get enough respect' ;-). America pilots were using this same model type (P-40 B&C's) of aircraft to fight the Japanese in China (with the 'Flying Tigers' as on aircraft's current livery) before the country had declared war on them. At the time (1941) the best land based fighter the USA had to offer against the Japanese and the Germans & Italians (primarily..) in North Africa (flown by British, S. African, Australia & Kiwi pilots) and also used rather extensively by the Russian on the Eastern Front. Though outclassed by other fighter types in subsequent years in the war later models (D'-P's) of the P-40 were produced throughout the conflict (over 13K eventually produced in all models) and proved a capable fighter-bomber to the end. The aircraft also played a very important role as a lead-in trainer for fighter pilots as their first taste flying an aircraft that had guns, could drop bombs plus was a stable and reliable platform meaning a great teaching tool.
@@NesconProductions, yep, this one is a N model, but painted like the C/Bs used by the Flying Tigers. The ones the Flying Tigers flew were designated “Hawk 81’s”. The Japanese thought they were fighting Chinese pilots flying P-40s. But they were fighting American pilots. They couldn’t release the fact that they were American pilots because Japan was not yet at war with the U.S. Releasing the fact would have probably started World War 2 sooner.
@@aviation4life640 Thought the mounts for 6 50 Cal's in the wings didn't look right for the model (thank for clarification ;-)!
PS - Though maybe less glamours there were plenty of aces that flew later models with 6 cals. in the wings (D models onward..) as with P-40N's and personally (LoL) wouldn't have given the bird a retro. paint scheme to make it look like an older model (though admittedly does look very nice & fooled me :-P). Just sayin' & certainly not my money :-).
@@NesconProductions, yes! there are very few B/C models still flying. This one represents the ace, Tex Hill, I think. The B/C’s cowlings are smaller. But as I put it, they just have smaller mouths!
@@NesconProductions, One way to tell if a P-40 is a N model is if the rear of the canopy is squared off.
I love the Skyraider and the Spooky gunship! They compliment each other well!
OMG, the best airshow i have seen in all my life (i´m 83 years) , those P-40 i dont understand how they can keep this aircraft still flying... great job hurra for USA !!! (SWEDEN)
The snarl of the Allison is music!
Love the aircraft. Fantastic job. I don't know how you do it? Zoom, pan, keep target and in focus.... and every pass is perfect. Your videos are almost as good as the pilots performing the passes.
Thanks for posting another great video.
For me, Harvard, Texan, AT-6 , it just has a BBRRRRRRRBBBBBBBBBB about it, love them all ! Great thanks !
A Brit in the USA, Love Merlins, but AT-6 equally especially on an enclosed airfield that reverberates. Both are MAJECTIC !
The P-40 war Hawk flying tiger is my favorite worldwar2 old Squadron
Just love that Sea Fury 👍
Seeign a later-war P-40N dressed up as a early war Flying Tiger looks weird, but very cool.
My ears thank you for these amazing sounds
Warbirds +low passes= great fun!
Little known fact from the TiG Brief (An Air Force publication for O-6 and above) back in the late 70's. I was the enlisted two-stripper publications clerk in personnel, but always read it before taking it up to the Colonel :) The C-47 is the ONLY non-combatant aircraft to be awarded an official "kill". One was flying in the Pacific during WW2, when it was jumped by a Zero. The fighter made pass after pass, until it ran out of ammo. The pilot decided to make a suicide run, and rammed the C-47. The Zero went down... the C-47 lumbered on and landed bent up and shot full of holes. Luckily, there was another C-47 that witnessed the attack. The C-47 that was attacked was awarded an official "kill", and wore it's single rising sun flag under the cockpit's side windows the rest of the war. Sadly, no further information was available as to what happened to it after the war. That is one bird that it would have been worth it to save!!!
Your camera work is brilliant, and you get the sound as well. You are truly talented.
I absolutely love your vids, don't ever change.
Yes yes ,,, finally ,, someone gave the camera to the person with the least palse!!! Thank you much!
I see a P-40 and all I can think of is Wild Bill Kelso.
Love all ww2 planes and their engine sounds♥️
Love the video. Head on shots are awesome.
Spooky!!!
Awsome 👍 another great vid to enjoy.
Airplane Porn, and I’m here for it! That Sea Fury is especially awesome!
Nothing like two 3350’s beating up the field!
Love it!! Great job with the videography!
💟💔💘🎭⭐🌟🌠✨👏🙌👐🤓😎😁😀😇🤑I love aviation. Nice looking fighter planes. I like the skyraider and p-40 warhawk.
😳Awesome!
Zoom out so we can get the sense of how low and fast! Must have been a blast to experience something like this, love the quality!
Fantastic
👍
Choice Cuts you served us well
Loved the Sea Fury🤯. Have you been keeping track of that downed Avenger? And thanks for taking us to this show 👍🏽
Outstanding soundtrack to go with great vid. Will save this one! Many thanks.
divine sound
I looove the Sea Furys flyby sound, no matter if it has an P&W engine or the original Bristol engine. Ok, the Centaurus sounds a bit better in my ears. Anyway, the Sea Fury is a brutal warbird.
Beautiful aircraft
Beauties up in the sky....
Great job recording the rapid fire action!
SALUTE!💙💚🌟🤗
The Bell P-39 Airacobra and Lockheed P-38 Lightning are my favorite single engine and twin engine fighters from that era. The P-39 had its issues, as every fighter does, but just as Chennault used the P-40 to great success against the Japanese by adjusting tactics to fit the plane's strengths and weaknesses, so too did the Russians with the P-39 against the Germans. The British Royal Air Force ordered some of the P-38 Lightnings but for some rather odd reasons they wanted them neutered; ordering them without the superchargers and turbochargers which drastically reduced their abilities, especially at altitude.
johncashwell YOU are wrong !!!! The P38's the brits received only had the TURBOchargers removed, the TURBOcharger feed into the stock mechanical supercharger mounted on all Allison V12's. The US government would NOT allow the new TURBOchargers to be exported to a "foreign" country. What the Brits did request that both engines were right hand engines, both turn the same way, stock P38's had one engine turning right one turning left, it made the plane easier to fly no engine torque to worry about, but Brits only wanted to have to have one type back up engines, that ruined the performance of the P38,.....but as usual the Brits always claim to be right even though Lockheed engineers had already figured out how the plane flew best !! Brits were wrong !!!!
Well done mate🇬🇧👍
Nice!!!
Nice vintage warbirds and sounds on this nice video😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊. SuperLike this nice video 👍😄
P-40, F4F, P-51, F4U are my favorite US WWII fighters.
Thank you for sharing---and thank you for no background music or yapping!
The P-40 is warbird all the way. A beefier airframe, engine,& more efficient wing design would have kept it in the fight longer. The FW-190 is a beaut! The P-51 wins out on looks, & the P-47 was the workhorse.
I didn't see a FW190, only a Hawker Sea Fury
@@kenhunt9434 I didn’t either! Just commenting on beautiful aircraft.
airplane! AIRPLANE!

radial engines ... sounds like music
Will you guys be at Thunder Over the Boardwalk this August?
Nope, not planning on that one but have fun if you go!
Nice old planes.......
For Rick29 the P40 uses the Allison V12 engine NOT a radial !!! Radials are round !!! DUUUUHH!!!!
What engine does the sea fury have in it , the original centaurus or an American engine.
Guessing the Sea Fury has an R-2800 and not the original engine?
WRIGHT R3350-26WD (Reciprocating)
Where do I watch this live?
Keep it going yanks.love it.over here in Britain if we show any patriotism,it’s looked apon as being racist and might offend someone and they might want to take away our history 😭🤬 it’s getting so sad
Man I hear ya. Not so good here in the US. Our senile Czar controlled from Beijing ushers in communism, bows to terrorists, stands Americans, bails on our Allies...worst president ever.
@@bernardusjones9814 wtf is going on.snowflakes everywhere
So true, seems so upside down these days. Good old fashioned values and patriotism frowned upon by a generation of kids that weren't raised with any discipline believing they are owed for everything. Forgetting the fact veterans gave them their freedoms paid for in blood. I'm ashamed of the way things are going. God Bless and thanks.
I guess aerobatics wasn't allowed at this gathering. Very cool P-40 though and no stinking music or announcers.
It's Tex Hill's old bird, I have a 1:32 scale replica of his P-40B, and I recognize those markings anywhere
Radials sound nice but for a sense of raw power you can't beat the sound of an Allison or a Merlin. I won't include the Daimler Benz 600 series engines as they sound like they were build from parts found in the scrap bin and forced to run by comparsion..
Was that last pass of the B-25 and TBM us heading back to STL? If so I'd like to share the perspective I had with you :) great view from the TBM!
Yep! Bonus pass
@@AirshowStuffVideos I'll send Ryan the video from my view you guys can post it if you'd like
💚🙃💚
Are you guys going to Oshkosh this year?
All week! We arrive tomorrow
@@AirshowStuffVideos That’s Awesome! Looking forward to seeing your videos!
Does anyone know what the "N-Number" is for that P-40N is??? TIA!

Hawker sea fury? Pretty sure... 0:32
Hello.
Those guys must really hate flying them planes...how do I get their job?
Alot of young men bet their lives on these buties
I stopped going to airshows because of the loud ass music. For that i go to concerts. Airshows are for seeing and HEARING PLANES.
That's the sound of antifascism.
thereissomcoolstuff......... that the sound of VICTORY, the sound of FREEDOM !!!!
@@wilburfinnigan2142 yes it is.
