Please let me know what you liked or hated about this video!
This was taken at the 2013 Sun N Fun Flyin! I love the sound of this Mustang! Did you know YOU can fly this Mustang? Check out Stallion 51 Kissimmee, FL.
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!
+7echo your very welcome
I love the P51D model it doesn't look like shit like the ones that came before it
+Derek Wall C wasn't bad. Kinda looks move aggressive to me.
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
+Derek Wall mainly they didn't have what was most important..... Time
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! :-)
What I like...YOU and all my viewers! Love you guys! I make these videos for you all to enjoy!
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!
The Spitfire has that sound too. The Mustang is powered by an American-built variant of the Merlin.
RandomActivities The sound you are referring to is the supercharger which is different to this sound
The Boomerang also has a whistle like that.
75 years old but still beautiful and sharp looking.
Das Flugzeug wirkt immer noch zeitgemäß, obwohl es 70 Jahre alt ist. Welch geniale Konstruktion!
A contender for the best sounding engine ever made. Beautiful plane.
Most aircraft just fly. The P-51 makes love to the sky.
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.
Gotta watch out for them bf 109s
The most beautiful airplane ever built, flown like it was meant to while singing a melodious roar.
999😊
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.
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.
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.
I flew that airplane last October !!! The best experience I’ve ever had!!! Can’t wait to get my hands on it again!!!
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.
+spectatoringu your welcome =)
P-51D! the most sexy, the most beautiful, and just the best damned fighter EVER built! Art on the wing!
Thanks to the British Merlin engine,
Finally a video without background music. Thank you for capturing that engine noise. Great video all around.
Thank you!
How menacing that must of been to be on the wrong side of one of those flyers back in WWII!!
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.
Please, stop using video stabilization. It makes videos like this more worse than if you didn't use it...
I thought at first I had just missed the memo about a new composite made from taffy
Precision Flying, Absolutely Beautiful!!!
The trouble is, is that it is only a matter of time until this one is augered into the ground for whatever reason. I saw an inexperienced pilot attempt a VERY slow roll at a very low airspeed and ended up burrowing a hole in the golf course at Ottawa airport. I don't want to see or hear of another. Just because you have lots of money to buy one it doesn't mean you are really qualified to fly one.
Can you not read? Thats not what I said.
Amen to that, unless you are qualified DONT FLY THESE THINGS!
CloudStreets Robert is absolutely right, it's so horrible seeing/hearing of just another warbird that has bit the dust.
Robert Bradley trouble is, if it's not your million dollars, then it's not your business.
Robert Bradley It's a catch 22 really... The only people who can afford these aircraft are older people who really have no business being behind the stick of one to begin with. There's a reason why most of the fighter pilots in WW2 flying these were in their 20s, because their judgement and reaction time are lightning fast. Elderly people, not so much.
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.
RACAF lol thats great stuff
What a glorious sound, I want one!
...could you afford the upkeep?
This is what you get when you combine the best prop driven plane from WW II with the best P-51 pilot flying today - Lee Lauderback.
OOOOH the sounds of freedom ! ! !
A feast for Merlin junkies indeed, but I think all allied fighters look absolutely superb once the Invasion Stripes were added, all thanks to the humble British wood pigeon!!
John Richarson...How many times are you going to keep harping on your Spitfires??? Do you think if say something 50 times it will come true??? The Mustang first flew in 41 and the British used the you are wrong tat they never saw service til 44 that would be the D model. Also you seem to omit that the Mustang had a range of 2,000 mile and you spit was lucky to get 800. Face it they were two different planes for two different missions and each gave up something to accomplish their PRIMARY goals. The Spit was a defencive intercepter that defended the skies over England and the Mustang was a long range escort fighter that took the Fight TO the German as an offencive fighter. And in comparing the two pick a model of the Spit, hell there must have been thirty of them, It's no wonder the Brits were not able to build many they were too busy changing them around, Hell the Yanks developed a model D and cranked them out by the thousands..."GIT ER DONE BOYS...no time for tea...there a war on ! ! ! " dumb Brits...
The p 51 dago red is 10% faster, have 40% more horse-power, is mass is 50% less ,have zero passengers is not pressurized, is in aluminum .
The piaggio avanti 2 have a cruise speed 10% lower (730 km/h) than the max speed of the P 51 dago red have 8 pax and two pilots and toilet, could be a little bit scary if you use the reverse when you forget you having an engine failed...but that turboprop with a service life 4 time of an piston engine.
Even if the P 51 will stay THE BEST propeller warbird ever made
; The unsurpassed Piaggio avanti was made in 1982 without today computers with only aluminium,and genius engineers italians and from NASA with 6000 hours of wind tunnel.
saw a rotte of granpas,& 2 grandkids at 1k feet chgo lakefront airshow in 2003,what a sight,2 f 18s, wing posits,a p 47 jug & '51D mustang inside,all going 450 mph.
I fly my RC P51 like that :-)
Great Vid of a great WW2 Fighter Aircraft P51 Mustang, yum yum,
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!!
Another great looking and sounding P-51 video: "Low pass Mustang Henley Ranch". Just type that into the UA-cam search block. At ten seconds into the video is the lowest flying P-51 video I have ever seen. See if you agree.
Hi rg500delta,whats the going hourly rate to hire a know it all smart fella like yourself? Does that hourly rate include sarcasm?
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!
...holi fuch....what kind of crack was this guy on? Excellent pilot.
Imagine the Mustang coming at your plane with six, .50 caliber MGs firing.
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!.
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.
Awesome war bird!
O Lendário Mustang P51, Para mim ele sempre será o melhor aviao de Guerra do mundo, Sensacional.
No music or talking. Sometimes the sound appeared to cut out on fly-bys, but Doppler effect concided with video (response to "fake"). Great manoevers. I'm a lukewarm airplane nerd but I watched this all the way through twice. Thanks!
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 ua-cam.com/video/fDfVwTQ-RhE/v-deo.html
What a wonderful noise. Best warplane of all time!
merlin music and that pilot talks to that p51 love it
Nothing but the sound of that beautiful Rolls Royce Merlin engine
Designed by Rolls-Royce - built by Packard.
Warwick Tregurtha Better than a Packard built by Packard.
I thank God for this beautiful plane, with out the Lord this wouldn't be possible.
Had to sign in just so I could give you a vote thumbs up for this vid. Great camera work as anyone who has tried to follow high speed planes, cars, whatever, will tell you. Do you remember what tripod head you were using?
I didn't use a tripod; just my Sony Handycam.
+Xrm150 Impressive. Maybe I should try using UA-cam's video stabilizer.
+AuroraDigitalArts works best if there are no clouds, trees, or poles in the video as the stabilizer will lock onto them for a second
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!
Cheers to the British Merlin I was on a R.A.F station that flew Lancasters and one flew over me at about 30 ft I was under the port outer engine and I was massaged from head to toe with those 4 Merlins and never to be forgotten [wifes computer ]
ALL Merlin engined Mustangs used the PACKARD built MERLIN as did ALL the Lancaster Mk B III 3,440 of them, half the total Lancaster production...
The Pilot and the Plane are "One." Complete Harmony. Love the "whistle."
Peace
What a beautiful sight!
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 !
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....).
I wish I could fly. Fantastic vid !!!
You CAN fly this plane at Stallion 51 in FL.
Just what a video should be nothing but beautiful engine sound good job 👍🏻
... 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
I'm glad you liked it.
I totally agree with HiredGun5!!!! I'm a P-47 or F4U fan more, but this video sure brings out what is cool about a Mustang.... Outstanding video here!!! Thanks for sharing!!
brrt but with looks
doesn't even need an actual brrt gun
just sooo cool
If any one and I mean anyone dislikes this there is something wrong with them !
Nice, but not anything like Bob Hoover could do👍
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.
Looks like Crazy Horse from Stallion 51 in Kissimmee Florida...probably piloted by Lee Lowderback
+Kevin Sweyer sure is
+Kevin Sweyer sure is
A W E S O M E.......
I stood next to CRAZY Horse in 20010. The most beautiful P51 Mustang in the world! Thank-you for an Awesome video!
For some reason, this Mustang has a weird looking canopy. The whole craft just doesn't look right. The Quick Silver Mustang looks authentic. Excellent flying though.
It's a trainer (two seater)
@@Xrm150 That explains it perfectly.
He almost stalled it 0:49
Great Video,,,, Great Sound,,, He's Pretty Good,,,, Not Bob Hoover Good,,, But Pretty Damn Good,... I Guess That's Lee In The Airplane,,,, I Sure Enjoyed It,,,, Great Sound With Gun Ports Open,,,,
Lee Lauderback put on the best P-51 airshow I have ever seen he gets lower, and lot faster.
He is Mr. Mustang =)
...BEAUTIFUL AIRPLANE, MAGNIFICENT FLYING!!!
Maybe the best P51 video on you tube. Man... that thing is an aerial killa... for WW2 I can see why other planes just got beat down.
352nd Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney. these guys had some amazing pilots.
+Raoul Walker That is so true!!
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.
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.
Built by the Americans perfected by the British
👏 👏
Well said.
this used to be the best plane flying and still is very awsome
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! :)
+peter delgado That's why he is called Mr Mustang =)
+Xrm150 just sayin because of that last comment :) this pilot and plane are legit
+peter delgado I know =)
+Xrm150 i just love P-51's and A-10's
Everything is great except the wind noise on the mics. The next time use a bigger wind screen.
Well I was filming with a Sony Handcam HDR-10 and there is no windscreens for it =( I do however have a NEW camcorder. A Panasonic HC-V750 and it has a built in windscreen however I need to custom make for for it also. It needs to be better because no matter what airfield you go to and no matter what the time is....its windy!
I thought it was a toy because of the stabilization, can you upload a non stabilized version ?
doubt it, it looks like in camera stabilised
Dang, I wish I could hitch a ride in one!!!
+Frank Parker you can... in this very one in fact. Search Stallion 51 on Google. You get to fly it!
Thanks. I have seen rides advertised for something like 12-1500. Just a little rich for my pocket book.
That pilot is real good and plays with that P51 in the air mass just as fine as the best would expect.
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.
very proud. my dad flew these in China. (43-45), with Chennault.
This is probably rude but I think you'd be interested in my crazy design, see my tag right there? Title: "Too Cool Demo 2" . this feels rude, I promise to be sorry until U see it ha.
This 51D appears to have an H vertical & rudder or is it a P-51 H
Actually it's a TF-51
What a perfect way to end a Monday!! Nothing gets the blood pumping and the goosebumps the way a Mustang does!
Great video!Love the whine and the Merlin.A true beauty!
Melvyn Cox I loved it!
Fan
My wife just asked me why I had a Big Grin for 5 minutes and 27 seconds
awesome man...thanks for posting !!
+pointnozzleaway your welcome =)
i noticed the DS on side of the "Crazy Horse" in memory of Doug Shultz, Lee's buddy+ buisness partner till he was killed in a Mig 21 while goin supersonic He was a "TOP GUN" fighter pilot + a great guy...R.I.P. my friend You were 1 of the BEST!! MustangMike.
Great flying & sound!
The most beautiful and deadly propeller aircraft ever built...so sweet, thanks for this.
Looks like its got an extended canopy for an extra passenger ?
It is a TF-51 (Trainer/Fighter) so yes it has the extended canopy for a extra passenger. This plane has dual controls. Some else neat about this plane is that YOU can fly it at Stallion 51 in Florida.
P51 at the limit
One of the Best Fighter in the Air over Germany, only the Germans FW-190 can match her under 6000 Meter high (Had something to do with the Engine of the FW-190), and above this Height, perhaps the ME-262 with her extreme Speed for this time :). A beatiful old Lady of the Sky :).
Wow, that "is" the best P-51video I've ever seen, thanks xrm150. Why I subscribed to you.
Thank you sir!
Why are we flying these magnificent warbirds like this….they need to be flown responsibly….straight and level….not like a competition aerobatic aircraft…..fools….Crazy Horse needs to stop flying in this manner….that is just irresponsible….😡😡
I flew in Crazy Horse on May 22, 2019 What a flight !
My brothers and I went there and flew in Crazy Horse on May 22, 2018. Ain't it incredible to have the stick and throttle in your hands?
Awesome video Thanks for sharing this. I love Mustangs with the D Day stripes
BTW.... This is not a P-51D. This plane is a TF-51D.
is this a cavalier from Bolivia ? My father tested and delivered em from cavalier for usaf
And guess what! That’s not a P-51!!
That’s a Cavalier. These were marketed after the war by North American as high speed personal transport aircraft. You can tell by the shape of the top of the vertical stabilizer. The P-51 is squared off and it has a dorsal fin in front of the vertical stab too.
Lots of folks make this mistake. It IS a very nice bird though!!
The stabilization honestly keeps me from enjoying it as it looks like a cheap cgi. Beautiful clip and amazing sound anyway.
North American P-51 Mustang. A World War II vintage classic.
wwwwwoooow! mustang i bow unto thee...
Great video and I appreciate you sharing it. That guy was demonstrating spectacular stick and rudder skills...however....I am always nervous when I see someone doing low altitude loops with ground level bottoms in a super high performance aircraft. There is just no room for error. A secondary stall could creep up on you if you were not constantly aware of your airspeed and altitude. Exciting to watch, but dangerous to perform.
In my mind the sexiest of all the warbirds, followed by the Corsair wow
My Dad was shot down on D-Day in his P-51, captured and spent 11 months in Stalug Luft III, he loved that plane and the P-47. Found out a few years ago who the guy was that shot him down.
