gregM Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I think you are right that the "Red 7" was destroyed in a crash.With only a handfull of warbirds left in flying condition, it amazes me that that theowners of these beauties would put them at risk buy actually taking them up.

Dave B Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Glad you liked them I bet it was pretty terrifying being a soldier on the receiving end of a G6 strafing run!!...the noise that engine and supercharger makes in a dive not to mention of course the cannon and MG's Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Fantastic video of Red 7, the only thing missing is the Hakenkreuz on the fin. The conversation the mechanics are having is interesting, talking about what performance is necessary for what weight. I've always thought the DB601 and successors were one of the great engines ever produced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what was he flying with?... Various models of the BF 109 Yes, I noticed how cramped that cockpit is!Hard work when modelling one of those birds, even on the 1/32 scale!

VtwinVince Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Interesting link, Dave, however the 109's in that simulation are not BoB spec E's, as you can see from the lack of tail braces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I recently saw one of those documentaries on some cable channel (not sure if Discovery or History or Odissey or National Geographic, one of these anyway) and the name of the documentary was something like "The 10 best fighters ever".I must confess that I was sad that they placed "my" BF 109 only on 5th place, after the P51 Mustang (1st), the Spitfire (2nd), the Mig 21 (3rd) and the F 18 Hornet (4th).There were 5 others, I can't remember them all or the order in which they placed them, but I know there was the F80, the Harrier and the Red Baron aircraft at least.Hi Dolf,Just thought I'd mention here that I believe these are run on History International. It seems to be a whole series on "The Ten Best...". They've done battleships, armored personnel carriers, tanks, fighter planes, bombers, etc. I try to tape them whenever I can catch one as I think they've done a terrific job with the series. And I've noticed that all the German gear tends to rank upper mid range to just under or at the highest marks in nearly all categories! Not bad considering they're taking them from the beginning right on up to present day. Nice to see that old German stuff holding it's own against our modern high tech.Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was a pilot, I would want to play with it also. I wonder how many of the Spanish aircraft are left in the world?Thanks for the links Dave Nothing like the sound of those old aircraft Axis or Allied.

Isn't it beautiful? )Dolf Edited April 29, 2006 by Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
