Van's Luftwaffe RV-8 pt.1
Loading...
Uploaded by 1946cub on Dec 11, 2007
This is a video of my Van's Aircraft RV-8.It is a kit airplane that took me 11 years to build.My paint job is for originality and in NO way is an indorsement for the Turd Riech or nazi's so don't go there! It's kind of like playing cowboys and indians when you were a kid....I liked being the one with the cool feathers.So now with most RV-8's painted up in US WWII paint I thought it would be neat to play the role of "bad guy" so that we can dogfight and make it look sort of real! Besides I think it looks great and I'm the one that has to look at it anyway...so if you don't have anything nice to say....

haha Great video man! I like to turn my cel phone off in the air though lol
-
I love your plane ! Badass looking for sure !
-
I love the approach. The fanfare in the music, a Luftwaffe paint scheme, and a fantastic airplane all represent the accomplishment of your build. Well done and happy flying! I hope to begin the construction of my 8 soon!
-
Well, I don't mind the paint scheme (except it'll be harder for the CAP to find you if you go down), but I think the choic of "Deutschland Uber Alles" for the soundtrack is hilarious.
-
Now all you have to do is secure some 20mm's and a dive siren, lol.

Killer paint job for a RV8... some inspiration right there.
-
It's amazing how a paint job can make even a RV-8 look sinister. I liked the control tower RT on my left stereo speaker. As for the music.Panzer Lied? Gott in himmel. I know RVs are tough little aeroplanes, but really.

@1946cub Those are kind words, looking forward to it all.

Hey 1946cub, are you German?
FantasticBob7000 1 year ago
@FantasticBob7000 Nope just have always liked the ME-109 and Fw190. They are the most interesting paint jobs and since everyone else paints their RV-8's like P-51's I thought it would be fun to have someone to dogfight with.

@1946cub I agree the P-51's been overdone. I'm thinking something Cub Yellowish for my -8, hope to be flying next summer.
You've got a nice plane there Oberleutnant.

@FantasticBob7000 Good luck with your 8. It is such a wonderful plane. I know you're gonna love it! I had to sell mine last year, it went to a great guy who has a good friend with a "p-51" 8 and i'm sure they are chasing each other all over the skies of Mississippi !! The paint job was the reason he bought it. I also think Cub Yellow on an 8 will be Beautiful.

This paint job is from an Fw-190 of the 4th Stab of JG3 the "Ernst Udet" Squadron flown by Willi Maximowitz, June 1944 out of Dreux,France.
