This is a compilation of clips of the Planes of Fame Museum's Corsair (Chino, California) and includes some clips of the Palm Springs Air Museum's own Corsair. Man, this thing just scoots, BIG TIME! Wow, just awesome!
Listen to the 2,000 horsepower generated by the 2,800 cubic inches of the supercharged, 18 cylinder Pratt & Whitney R-2800! You'll see during the flybys why the Japanese called this fighter the "Whistling Death."
This aircraft just leaps off the runway in just a few seconds, and remember, the manifold pressure used today for takeoff with 100-octane low-lead fuel is not anywhere near what could be used with the wartime, 130-octane+ fuel. Very impressive! Less

I really love the audio on this film. The sputtering start, and then the full throated engine at take off. It's a different sound than with modern, lighter prop planes. Thanks!

Inverted gull wings!
Junkers Ju 87 ground attack plane had the same inverted gull wings, came into service in 1935.
F4U Corsair came into service in 1942.

I've seen these planes and I've seen jets fighters fly over stadiums and these are by far more impressive to me.

I wouldn't describe this sound as "whistling" but it makes me want to die.
