  • don't forget Polish pilot from 303 division ! Best regard from UK.

  • That sound at 1:02 .....incredible 

  • Who gives a damn anyway? They were both beautiful & deadly aircraft whose historical importance cannot be ignored.

  • @MrStig691 Oh for goodness's sake, stop altering the facts to suit your favorite planes. Every historical account gives the 51 credit for being the fastest single-engined fighter of the war. The Spit couldn't outclimb the 109 or 190 until its 8th variant. It still possessed somewhat superior armament and turn rate to the 51 but lacked range and superior speed. Both aircraft were still more maneuverable than axis counterparts, so when 51s were over Berlin it really didn't matter.

  • @Blasphemisaurusaoe3 Not so, the 51 didn't quite have the performane of climb and speed, as well as turn. Not to mention armament.

  • We can't forget the hurricanes and the pilots of those planes. They did just as much as spitfire pilots and helped preserve our freedom.

  • Does anyone know who the composer is of the opening piece to this video?

  • @Blasphemisaurusaoe3 i offer a compromise both planes where the best at what they did p51 long ranger support fighter the spit best defence fighter

  • @Blasphemisaurusaoe3 long live the freedom we have lets not let those brave men and woman die in vain

  • @kevinkards1 Agreed. I love both planes and have no favorites.

    I also enjoy and cherish my freedom which these planes helped preserve.
