What Catfish said, looks big enough to install half a dozen submachine guns in the wings. Tec 9s?
Even looked like the engine torqued it to the right on take off.
Very awesome...

Aviation terms call it the P-Factor. Engine torque over taking the weight and mass of the control
surfaces while accelerating. In other words. the Engine power to the prop was stronger then the
wind passing over the control surfaces.

Modeled really to well in X-Plane.

My wife and me saw a P-47 fire up for real at the old Planes of Fame museum at
Flying Cloud airport in Eden Prairie. It was being worked on and they pulled it
out between a couple a hangers to fire it up. Good lord. When that engine fired
up and ran. We were about deaf from the noise echoing between the hangers It was
unreal how loud it was. They must have have been searching for an oil leak, they
amount oil on the pans and all over the ground was everywhere. We quickly retreated
to preserve what little hearing we had left.

X-Plane model of the P-47 is a real bear to takeoff in, not unlike many of those old
big radial engines. Really must apply to much rudder to even get down the runway.
Or else you wind up ground looping on takeoff. Not a pretty sight.

Got to hand to the engine builder of that model though, Sounds great.

Yes they did, problems begin the second it lifts off the ground. LOL

I was, once, about 50' from a P-51 Mustang when it started (out in the open) and it was, indeed, damn loud. I can just imagine what it would have been like with some buildings to echo the sound.

I was a 100 yards or so from one as it took off today, I could not contain myself and I let out a quick "Wooooo!" as cold chills ran down my arms. And as good as that Merlin sounds, a big round R2800 is even better, IMO.

A loud airplane was the Tracker - would hear it before seeing it.


There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB.
The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed.
There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

Some videos I have taken of some WW2 planes starting up. Starting with the latest in 4k.





Going back to 2010 Air Expo at Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie,MN









Still waiting to find a P-47D to film in 4k and 7.1 audio. Nothing ever close enough.
