Really enjoyed that video, and I hope to do the same at Camarillo this year when they should have two flying together.
I TOTALLY agree about commentators. I love to hear the sound of the plane and the engines, it's why I go to an airshow.
What you normally get is "okay, here comes the P-51/47/38, roaring into the flight area from the distance, if you listen carefully you'll hear the roar of the rdial/in-line engine as it approaches. The sound is made from the powerful engines as the pilot increases the throttle and the noise comes out of the exhausts, it's the sound that hundreds of civilians heard during WW2 and was also the sound that the enemy ground crews would hear as they approached on low-level fighter sweeps. And there they go, didn't the engines sound brilliant?!!!"
I DON'T ******G know, you talked all over them!!!
If there was an airshow where they said, "and next we have the P-51 Mustang arriving in just 1-minutes time......enjoy the sound and I'll be quiet until it/they depart", I'd pay double the price!
Cheers, MP.
