This video from the mid 2000's was created for Sir Tim Wallis' Alpine Fighter Collection (in Wanaka, New Zealand), when they decided it was time to sell their cherished collection of Soviet-built World War Two fighters -- the Polikarpov I-16's and I-153's.
This 'lost' video has been recovered, restored and remastered and is now available in its entirety on Historical Machines TV (www.historiclamachines.tv).
For your enjoyment we present here a shortened version of that 15 minute sales film to give you a taste of what you'll see in the full movie.
The original film was produced by Blue Bicycle Flicks Ltd, and is reproduced under license.

The I-16 is definitely the real cartoon plane
What Sir Tim and Kermit Weeks do for aviation history is to be respected.
Would buy one in a heartbeat!
What a sound !!
Yes! I was nine when Red 9 arrived in NZ and I fell in love with the Ishak when I saw a photo of her in the Warbirds over Wanaka 1996 book. But - truth be told - I think I'd prefer a Chaika. Such a phenomenal-looking and -performing machine...plus you don't have to wind up the undercarriage!
So cool!
If I had the money, I’d buy it.
Wonderful! One of my favourite aircraft. And FOUR at once! Remarkably thin looking wings compared with, say, a Hurricane. A gem.
Glad you enjoyed it
Brilliant!!!....we want a couple of those wee Beauties.
To answer the thumbnail, hell yeah! If had the money of course...
They even have I-16s.... 4 OF THEM
Apparently those engines were fitted to some common ag planes,and still in production in Poland ,the exhaust arrangement here gave the distinctly pleasant note.
You are probably thinking of the AI-14 and M14P. Note: after making this comment, it is more likely to be a ASH-62 that is used in the AN-2 but I am not sure anymore. Both extremely good engines and the M14P would be perfect for a scaled replica I-16.
@@wackaircaftmechanic2312Yeah,bring on modern replicas,with flaps and some dihedral etc.
@@MrLeslloyd I would love to see it. Maybe when I’m old and bored!
@@wackaircaftmechanic2312ASh-62 is produced in Poland too. Of course present version is not exactly the same engine. (has bigger compresion ratio and direct fuel injection and more power- 1200 HP , while the original ASh-62 from 1940 gave about 1000.) Actually this plane has russian version (from AN-2)
@@tomekpawwaw Oh that makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the clarification!
Very reliable engine
The best plane of early WW2
0:48 the 5th of those four brothers today flies in Fundación Infante de Orleans Airshow in Madrid with Spanish colours
When Kermit Weeks bought one of these, he didn’t disclose his price. But he did mention that the owner prior to him paid $450,000 for his in airworthy condition with a working engine. I guess since this took a whole team of engineers several years to build, it’s understandable, but certainly not used Cessna prices…
Like a Gee-Bee ready for war!
They never had the speed to keep up with German planes of 1941 and newer, but they had manoeuvrability of a kangaroo, they could stop mid air and turn, they were brutal planes in the right hands, however the Soviets lacked skilled pilots like any young nation that never seen much combat.
They still saw auxiliary use until the 1950s after they were outdated by 1941
Yes
Mantab 👍
Божественный звук мотора. Один истребитель находится в С Петербурге,в Военно-Морском музее.
Only if they lower the BR of it.
Jokes aside, awesome little aircraft.
The Donkey!
