Just imagine the look on the ground infantry's faces if they saw these things flying overhead 😂

Some of the most interesting planes were churned out during World War 2.

Twin Mustang: *exists*
Bf109 Zwiling: *sad incomplete project noises*

Also, it wasnt suited to flying the pacific cause of fuel. Had a very good range with drop tanks. What it lacked was redundency. In a p38 over pacific, you lose an engine, you fly home a little slower. 51 loses an engine, unless youre near an island, youre about to get wet

It’s literally one of those two player games where the second player can’t do anything but walk around

The Starjet would have been a trip; an afterburner running on the avgas they used at the time would have had a serious problem with solid deposits.

5:39 - Minor error in the dialog: "...piston engine fighter jet..."

The F-82 Twin Mustang was produced and used successfully in the Korean war.
It did come in the interim period between prop and jet fighters, and thus became a kind of a stopgap…

Thought you lost your stride there for a long while. Welcome back. This was tremendous. Keep this kind of content coming. Well done!

I was lucky enough to see a conjoined p51 that I'm pretty sure was in flying condition on a field trip, the people who worked at the museum it was at were doing maintenance on it.

You need to see " The Wing Will Fly" a Documentary of Jack Northrop's Flying Wing concept. Pay special attention to test pilot Cardinas who refused to do stall tests because power stalls of the airframe type can cause a spin that causes the plane to rotate along the long axis of the 172 ft wing at an rpm rate that will pin the pilot to the seat making it impossible to raise his arms due to.them being pinned to the seat by centrifical force.

Cardinias recovered the spin because the spin he was in was in the opposite direction and his arms were forced AWAY from the pilot seat, whereas Glen Edward's arms were forced INTO the pilot's seat. Also, it was said Edward's co-pilot was flying it at the time.

The B-36 Pacemaker huh ? Lol. Good one. It was a great plane but practically outdated by the time it was just getting going

[MisterRorschach]

The relatively new super tucano seems like a modern version of the p51. Imagine if they made a modern version of the f-82. Maybe even add a 3rd person in the center or closer to the tail section.

Lost me at calling the me262 hitlers supersonic armada

[jimsvideos]

The Twin Mustang gave good service. Whether that was because of the peener-shaped cluster of external tanks or in spite of it I don't know.

We can only imagine the smells in that double mustang after butt numbing 14 hour flight.

This channel, mustard, megaprojects, etc. Are peak.

Keep doing what you do. I wish you all the success possible.

a twin fuselage Concorde... now i've seen it all, i'm unfazed by anything else in the realm of aviation... and i thought that airbus patent was ridiculous...
