cool vids SA. ya know, the thing that impresses me the most about this stuff is...we view it and class it in "our" frame of mind...according to 'OUR" age. but the "MEN" flying these planes and doing all of this...weren't even 30...hell most werent even 20 freaking 5! I am talking both axis and allies...god bless them all.

gilly, i thought they were lining up for a drag race :grin: ok im guessing a p 47 engine, a b 17 ( but its probably a lanc motor), and a merlin. would be an interesting race tho....

um first one looks like a bristol centaurus,2nd a merlin,give up on the last one...another bristol ?

I'm guessing the very far engine is a Pratt & Whitney R2800 or a Wright Cyclone? But it looks like a R2800 more I think. The middle engine looks to be a Rolls Royce Merlin or maybe a Griffon. But it doesn't look right to me? The second I'm guessing is a Pratt & Whitney Twin Wasp? It's not very big, and looks fairly similar?
