Title: Ride along in a Mossie!
Post by: macleod01 on October 29, 2012, 07:44:10 AM
Just found this new video on Youtube!
Mossie, Vampire and Spitfire all in formation! God bless the Kiwis for getting the Wooden wonder flying again!

Will watch in full and with audio when I get home from work.  Just looking at the start the acceleration and rapidity with which it got airborne were both pretty impressive.

That was...
oh dear, I just soiled myself  :uhoh

Edit:
Now with a clean pair of panties. That was AWESOME!
Apologies about the above, I was sexually aroused by this plane.
The cockpit looks so cramped, not much wider than a P47's, but for a crew of two. Forward visibility is superb.
How much will it cost me to convince the owner to let me make sweet lovin' to his plane?

That pilot sure made landing that squito look easy.  Same with formation flying which I'm certain is anything but.

Sick SICK video, many thanks.

From what I gathered from the comments beneath the video, yes it is the Stall Horn. The comments say that it was a guide to the Pilot for when they were flying with gear down, however with the fact that it happens in formation flying as well makes me think that it is a stall horn.

Interesting to actually hear the horn, if it is authentic.
