Agree. 👍 The DB is deeper and more purposeful. The Merlin snarls in comparison. I think that the Griffon sounds better too. Having said that I'm due to fly in a Spitfire Tr9 in two days. I'll let you know what it sounds like in flight from within the cockpit.

It's really heartwarming to see a fully restored Bf 109E taking to the sky. Some of the sequences, especially the closeups and landing, are really breathtaking.
"Should the swastika be allowed on historically accurate aircraft in Germany?" I'm not a German but in my opinion, yes. Not just Germany, but anywhere they are displayed or used to teach history.

There are far too many examples of history quite literally repeating itself and had unfettered and unbiased, rational discussions been allowed without censorship to discuss the merits or failures of past politics and regimes we would not find ourselves making the same mistakes or ignorantly trying to "improve" on them in the present day.

Try driving a car with the front wheels set at a toe-out wheel alignment and you will find the car wants to go all over the place and you have your work cut out trying to keep going straght ahead.

@@muckiderhase157 From the Warbirds Information Exchange website : Quote : The remains of the aircraft were recovered near Murmansk, Russia in 1993, where it had crashed on January 24, 1942 when operated as part of 5./JG5.

The main body of the restoration/rebuild, including fuselage, tail, cowls, cockpit, landing gear, etc., was done by Craig Charleston in the UK, and the wings and some other components were restored/rebuilt by Hartmair Leichtbau in Germany. It was reported some years ago that the DB 601 fitted to the aircraft was rebuilt by Sigi Knoll and Karl Vogt (at the Messerschmitt Foundation, Manching, Germany), and Dirk Bende has been involved with the engine more recently, getting it consistently running correctly. I would suspect Skycraft in the UK was responsible for the propeller, since they did those for the other two airworthy Bf 109Es (currently not flying, but hopefully soon-ish).
Considering it flew before all principal Allied fighters, it's duration of its production, of the many theatres in which it fought, of the numbers produced, of the number of 'aces' it produced and of the number of enemy aircraft it shot down, in my book the Messerschmitt Bf-109 ranks as the most successful fighter aircraft in history. It's always a privilege to see such a restored classic fly and to hear the sound of the DB-601 again. Congratulations to all those who helped get her back in the air, where she belongs.
I’m a fan of the plane and respect your opinion. The reason I think it’s not the most successful is the difficulty in adding additional armaments or really significantly upgrading it like the Spitfire 24 vs the first Spitfire but mostly the numbers written off in T/O and Landing accidents. That happens to every plane and part of the numbers were due to decreasing pilot quality towards the end of the war but it knocks it out of top spot IMHO. But I’m ecstatic she’s flying.
@cat-im4vv It’s the most numerous fighter ever made. Do numbers equal success? The Americans and British could have easily made a fighter in these numbers.. but they made so many different kinds which reflected wartime advances as well as specialized roles. They also made fighters that were larger and better armed with more speed and maneuverability and range. The German war production was severely hampered in all aspects from attacks on factories to worker shortages-especially tool makers which are required for new aircraft types-to material shortages to immediate expediencies of war which couldn’t risk downtime and possible failure of a new fighter type. Even the amazing ME-262 consumed vital resources for it to only be shot down taking off or landing at airfields that were constantly harrassssd by rhe enemy.
@@calvinnickel9995 The later Spitfire marks and the later P-51 versions were just all around better planes than the ME-109 which was a pre-war design and was limited by the size of the plane. The later Spitfire marks had a more powerful engine than the original and the P-51D had the benefit of several more years of areoplane development particularly the laminar flow wing and aircraft construction that reduced drag. Being able to escort B-17’s to Berlin and back and still dog fight over Berlin is something no German fighter could dream of doing. And the numerous ME-109s lost in take-off and landing accidents makes it very tough to claim the best ever if 25% of your strength is eliminated in non combat actions. That said it’s incredible that a plane originally designed and built in the 1930’s was good enough to fight through to 1945 and still be an effective plane at wars end. The venerable Zero and the Wildcat were excellent planes but by wars end they were no longer capable of taking on the front line missions that the ME-109G/F could.
The ME 109 has always been a favourite of mine , I believe it's the most mass production aircraft of all time? This one being flown by British pilot Mr Brown! Lovely sounding aircraft too! I think we all have to remember that the swastika is highly offensive to the German public and is illegal to display and really takes nothing away from the beautiful finish on this 109e
@@johanndork5364 Not only narrow track, but notice the landing gear wheels are in line with the landing gear leg, and not perpendicular to the ground. Takeoff and landing must've been like making a ballerina try to run "en pointe". 😬 Many 109s were lost just in take-off and landing accidents because of that. And the pilot landed on a turf runway. Total skill. 👍

You can see the leading edge slats pop out during the flair for landing at 2:31 It's always hoped that they both extend at the same time! A nice rebuild and flight, better than new.
Law goes back to the Allies who first banned its display. There's lots of German aircraft and other machines on display, in museums, with the nazis precious swastika.
Truly appreciated and wonderfully well filmed BF109 with the proper Daimler Benz engine,exhaust manifolds in the correct position, such a lethal aircraft in the right hands, sadly this was the last thing so many young pilots ever saw. 😢 ( no music great ) 👍
Beautifully restored, congratulations for all of those involved! I’m ready to pay for that high-speed flyover sound as a ringtone in iTunes! No Merlin comes close to it!
WOW it looks and sounds fantastic! My dad was a young WWII B-25 pilot stationed in Tunis, Tunisia in Jimmy Doolittle's outfit in 1943. On a bombing mission over Pantelleria island one day his small flight of bombers encountered an overwhelming number of Bf-109s on the horizon, protecting the very important North Africa supply chain. My dad's flight leader, realizing it was a suicide mission, immediately ordered an emergency dive away abort to the mission before the deadly Bf-109s saw them. I can only imagine the adrenaline of facing a huge swarm of deadly Bf-109s in a medium bomber! Luckily, my dad survived the war, continued flying, and retired from the USAF as a Major after 21 years of service. Considering he started out as an army Private assigned to a parachute packing outfit he did pretty well. If he were alive today I'm sure he'd love to try his hand at flying that Messerschmitt! 😁
This looks so good at first glance you think its not a full size or a model, but no, its the real deal, The flying is excellent and textbook stuff. The restoration work is obvious and beautiful.
Looks great but I wish they put a swastika on it for none other but historical aesthetics. Would really complete the look. Otherwise looks fantastic, just missing that one critical detail

You want to know something very special ? The Me108 trainer flies exactly like the 109 E. Before these planes were flying Hollywood used the Me108 as a substitute. Somebody actually owned one very near me in it was my privilege to see it fly. Later on when I got to see the real thing I was amazed that they fly exactly the same way ! This may sound crazy but I would love to see even earlier models of the 109 to be built and fliwn like the ones that flew in Spain.
Some guy used to fly a Me 108 into Silverstone for the British Grand Prix back in the early seventies. i saw it a couple of times and i'm sure it sported the swastika on the tailplane too.
Not sure what you mean but we had a 108 in the CAF in Hobbs New Mexico back in the early 70s and it flew about as close to the 109 as the T-37 did to the T-38.
@LoosMoose It’s hard to say what they mean. Obviously a 109/T-38 is going to blow away a 108/T-37 in acceleration, climb rate, and top speed. But usually when people say it it’s more of a stability/control harmony/stall characteristics kind of thing.. and often even more basic things like control layout or basic systems. I fly a Cessna Caravan and it really is a big Cessna 172 even though it has an 867 HP turboprop instead of a 150 HP piston engine and can go 175 knots instead of 100. I’ve heard people say the same thing about Beechcraft from the Bonanza to the King Air which I also fly. I wouldn’t be surprised if a T-37 flew like a Cessna 172 or Caravan.
Agree .. The logo on its fin was a symbol of its very existence. Beautiful machine and awesome restoration, but to deny the logo on the fin is a bit of a shame for those brave young men who fought and died in these machines flying for the glory of the Reich. Love it or hate it, that symbol does belong on this aircraft.

Wow what an amazing sound that daimler produces ,lovely footage thanks
Thanks liking and subscribing.
Total Magnificence of Machinery.
Tan bonito que creí que era una maqueta no el de verdad... nunca lo he visto tan espectacular❤❤❤😮
Outstanding and the sound..
awesome thanks
First time I've seen Charlie Brown flying something other than a Spitfire....great video of a great aircraft flown by a great pilot. 10/10.
Thank you
First time I hear the turbo hissing on the 109. So cool!
It’s a supercharger
You want to know something very special ? The Me108 trainer flies exactly like the 109 E. Before these planes were flying Hollywood used the Me108 as a substitute. Somebody actually owned one very near me in it was my privilege to see it fly. Later on when I got to see the real thing I was amazed that they fly exactly the same way ! This may sound crazy but I would love to see even earlier models of the 109 to be built and fliwn like the ones that flew in Spain.
Some guy used to fly a Me 108 into Silverstone for the British Grand Prix back in the early seventies. i saw it a couple of times and i'm sure it sported the swastika on the tailplane too.
Not sure what you mean but we had a 108 in the CAF in Hobbs New Mexico back in the early 70s and it flew about as close to the 109 as the T-37 did to the T-38.
@LoosMoose
It’s hard to say what they mean. Obviously a 109/T-38 is going to blow away a 108/T-37 in acceleration, climb rate, and top speed.
But usually when people say it it’s more of a stability/control harmony/stall characteristics kind of thing.. and often even more basic things like control layout or basic systems.
I fly a Cessna Caravan and it really is a big Cessna 172 even though it has an 867 HP turboprop instead of a 150 HP piston engine and can go 175 knots instead of 100.
I’ve heard people say the same thing about Beechcraft from the Bonanza to the King Air which I also fly.
I wouldn’t be surprised if a T-37 flew like a Cessna 172 or Caravan.

Wow, just Wow, a fantastic restoration of an iconic Airplane 👍
Indeed thanks liking
Sweet sound of gears and pure power.
Great job with the restoration. A beautiful aircraft. Something is missing on the rudder though.
+@_zoinks2554 The swastika has been banned in Germany since 1945, with only a few exceptions.
Agree .. The logo on its fin was a symbol of its very existence. Beautiful machine and awesome restoration, but to deny the logo on the fin is a bit of a shame for those brave young men who fought and died in these machines flying for the glory of the Reich. Love it or hate it, that symbol does belong on this aircraft.
This plane was the terror of the skies!
Out of times when war was as horrible as today but planes some kind of beautiful...
Awesome. Thank you.
Thank you liking
Had one pass over my a couple of years ago.
I noticed that low rev deep sound, almost diesel-like, compared to the powerfull music from the Merlins.
A much guttural sound to the engine than a Merlin and for that supercharger wine, love
The first 109s had a Rolls Royce engine.
@@TheBioniXman This one dose not and sound different
@@TheBioniXmanA Rolls Royce Kestrel I believe.
@maryhausler8900
Yeah it was a Kestrel.
Spanish Air Force ones used Merlins although they weren’t technically BF-109s.
Hi...
Wunderschön restauriert und ein genialer Sound. Mein Onkel durfte bei Rudel an der Panzerknacker Stuka schrauben und hatte früher immer viele Geschichten von Warbirds zu erzählen...
Könnt ihr nicht mal zum Fly In nach Mönchengladbach zum Flughafen kommen?
Wenn ich das in der Macht hätte ... Dann Hahnweide 2025
Absolutely Beautiful.....nothing more to say 👍👍

That bird is so clean I initially mistook it for a scale model at first glance..
Unfogettable fighter
Großartig! 😎 Danke !!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Danke fürs liken
@@Warbirds
Freue mich sehr über solche Berichte! Eine fliegende Emil in Deutschland !!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Eine Friedrich wäre die Krönung…
German technology and industry have always been several steps ahead of other countries.
in former times. now we are ideology leaders
maybe, but they were no match to the spitfires ...
Beautiful warbird
Great video. As a private pilot with a lot of hours in tailwheel airplanes I have to think the 109 was tough to taxi with that nose so high. The pilot in this video obviously is very skilled.
im having problems on takeoff and landing with this machine
Gute Landung und Start auf Rasen. Mein Favorit ist die Friedrich serie und die Kurfürst, mag aber auch die G10.
Must have a fast approach speed, I thought he was going to go around but touched down nicely.
Beautiful!
