Even better Bill! Ebots...funny how we can become attached to something that is relatively new to our world.
Lovely shot! This one has the Allison engine in it, right? Never heard one of those, but I've heard a Merlin several times. Unforgettable!
another super shot
It does take a while for the link to load, but if you want to hear this plane fly by, it's worth the wait! Great shot ... beautiful day for it! :)
Oh, Bill! You took me up on the sound file thing! All that's missing is the rattle of machine guns. Wow. And, I must say you've got a fast camera, taking photos so close in time and getting them perfect. I can just feel the thrill of standing there watching this classic fly by with all the sounds (and odors?). Great going! Now to frighten the neighbors some more! ROAR! (I wouldn't be a T.Rex if I didn't do such things from time to time, would I?) Keep up the good work! Got a picture of him landing, by the way? :-) And, thanks for commenting the "bent" panorama from yesterday!
In response to PSDuck's question above, the stat sheet for this P-51B says the engine in this bird is a V-1650-7, a licence-built version of the Rolls-Royce Merlin 60 series. I am 99.9% sure this engine was license-built by Packard. Original Allison engines were replaced by Rolls-Royce/Packard built Merlins.
I am really enjoying this series!!
I love these shots Bill.
fantastic!!!
Fabulous capture Bill!! It looks great!!
Once again stunning work on this Bill. But when do we see the posters on sale :)
Love this capture it does show more of this beauty.
It was nice of him to stop so you could take a picture. Nice photo.
The trees are almost touching the bottom of the plane!!!
I'm amazed how clear this "fly-by" shot is...beautiful!
Opened up the sound file Bill... And let me just confirm 100% as an experienced Merlin dude, it WAS a Merlin! lol BUT not from a Mustang as no whistle afterwards.. That was a 'thing' they had, caused I expect by that vent under the aircraft.... Spits, did not have one... ANYWAY! Blindingly good shot once more lol Well done, you lucky thing lol Can I recommend mate, going to The Fighter Collection website for Flying Legends trailer for this year..,. And turn up the volume! lol No worries about comments... Rob
Superb capture Bill. God Bless.
Great shot and I love the sound. Power!
Super Shot.
Very cool capture
Wonderful shot and series on this P51 B Mustang Bill!!
Lovely Shot Bill! And recall the thrill of these at Fairford in the UK show
Stellar to super in this awesome capture of the Mustang soaring by, Bill. It sure reminds me of the movie, Empire of the Sun, when the P-51s came roaring in low, decimating the Japanese fighters attempting to take off from the airfield. Gorgeous shot.
fantastic series!!
he flying low for sure
Excellent work and series Bill!!!
Excellent capture!
Indeed a 'chunky sound' - too close for comfort for little moi, it scares hell out of me and reminds me of Berlin ;( running for shelter with the adults ... well done, Bill ;) BB
This profile view is the best of the mix!
Great shot Bill - and the sound is super too - once I got it going!
