  • "One of the most important lessons I would impress upon anyone who flies historic aeroplanes now or in future is that you must have the humility to share your privilege with the public. If you have an arrogance about you, you aren’t doing justice to these aeroplanes and the history. We’re merely caretakers."
    - Air Marshal (Retd) Cliff Spink (excerpt from The Vintage Aviation Echo).

    Excellent, excellent.. Love visiting Duxford. I recently sat in the cockpits of Mk1 Spit N3200 & Hurricane BE505. Looking forward to the summer air shows

    Beautiful aircraft, just one missing - the fabulous Mosquito.

    Beautifully done.A Mosquito would have been nice to see.Especially good was the music from the 1940's.

    A wonderful video. I've only been to Duxford once, an agonizingly short visit in 1998. I saw the Blenheim under restoration then. I hope to see this airshow some day.

    Thanks for the video, I appreciate how challenging it is to smoothly frame and track aircraft especially formations. Week done.

    Great footage, but don't break the main rule. Never put music over engine sound. Walkarounds, ok, but not a running warbird engine ;)

      Thank you! It was a great week as always with Legends! I work to create a fine balance of mood, music and engines. As in this film, I always keep half of the airborne footage with engine sound only. Most of the airborne footage of the ARCo formation was engines only. The other half is music fitting the tempo and lowered in volume for every pass. Some rules of continuity, audio mixing and lighting are important, other rules only limit our creativity.
      Kind regards,
      Knut Åshammer

    What would mr Mitchell have thought: so many spitfires flying, over 80 years from the prototype’s first flight.

    P-51 taking attack formation on the Bf-109..classic!

    • @briancritchley5295
      @briancritchley5295 Před 4 lety +1

      I thought the same, the bf-109 was a fine plane but not when a P-51 was in that position..

    In what does the silver SM845 differ to the rest of the spitfires? It seems to have much longer nose with the cockpit further back. Just curious. Thanks!

    Nice vid. Could you do a version without the music because it spoils the great visuals.

  • @benters3509

    I miss Duxford so much. I don't think the music was annoying. It was very low when it needed to be.

    Us Warbird and pilot fanatics, prefer the RAW sound. Especially, when Radials and Merlins are close overhead! No added music or sound effects please!!??

    I’m sure it’s a superb video. Only got a couple of minutes in. However you go to all the trouble of excellent filming & put a music soundtrack over the soundtrack we want to hear. The engines ! 🤦‍♂️

    Somethings wrong with the 109, I think it’s the wrong engine.

    a p-51 with the nose art of a p-40 avg flying tigers. HMM.

    • @andrewwaller5913
      @andrewwaller5913 Před 4 lety +1

      Actually 112 Sqn RAF which flew Mustangs after the P-40 which also had sharks teeth. AVG Flying Tigers were early P-40s with different designs of sharks teeth.

    • @JohnyG29
      @JohnyG29 Před 2 lety

      Its wasn't just the AVG who used sharks teeth nose art.
