Every wanted to fly a classic warbird? AVweb's Paul Bertorelli can tell you there are more switches, cranks, and levers than you may be used to in the cockpit of the P-40N. Vintage Wings of Canada's Dave Hadfield walks you through all those mechanisms. For more on this airplane (and others in the Vintage Wings collection), visit http://www.vintagewings.ca .

  • @geo1gin2 YOU are a very lucky man!

  • @Davathu619

    He flew them during WWII buddy. And you can start flight training at any age, but you need to be 17 to get your pilot's license.

  • @belzebuthhhh that is true but apparently speed didn't help Germany in the end of the war

  • le meeserrssshmit etait mainte fois plus rapide

  • all the planes i flew, the P-40 is still in my opinion, the best to fly. Some say its not, but when you enjoy flying the P-40, it is truly amazing

  • @Davathu619  you fly them, not drive them

  • @geo1gin2 did you actually drive those military planes, my question is how i mean aren't they expensive thats what i heard, also how old do you have to be to drive a plane

  • Awesome vid, thanks for posting. With the RAAF it was A29-414 Come In Suckers. Crashed while landing at a boggy airfield, one of the wheels colleapsed and it nosed over and caught fire. The fire was put out and it was bulldozed clear of the strip to make way for other SQN ACFT coming in, all low on fuel. It remained in situ until it was recovered in 2001.

    Therefore this restoration is a credit to those who carried it out.

  • Great editing???????????? HUH? Yes...a jump cut or flash frame at 2.15 is a sure sign of great editing! lol my God howieb38...get a grip!
