The look, and especially the sound !! Definitely one of the worlds most powerful vacuum cleaners !!!
And i've got the swedish version 😄 m.th-cam.com/video/LVmyrLK1yDw/w-d-xo.html well, uk too i think.
Sounds better than a dyson!! Lol
The sound of a centrifugal jet engine is unmatched.
I worked on. Vampire A/c from 1955 to 1960. Amazing. Aircraft. The T11 trainers canopy was adapted from the mosquito so pilot and cadet sat side by side On two Martin baker ejection seats great for aerobics easy to fly and service. Brings back fond memories
Yes I've seen one, I think it's in the Shuttleworth collection. My Dad was a gunner for the Vampires in 6th Squadron.
My godfather, Bert Young, will be 90 this Sunday. He flew an early Vampire as a test pilot for the RCAF at the end of the war. Crashed and walked away! His photos of the wreckage give pause. Better yet, his mate drove a different route in his car than the crash brigade, found Bert walking around, took him to the hospital, then the bar. When they finally caught up to Bert, he was his relaxed and affable self. Much finger wagging ensued. He flew many more test flights. Apparently, the Vampire's gun did a nice job on armour.
pretty neat story, thanks for sharing!
Crash a vampire, down a beer. Sounds about right :)
The most graceful first generation jet. Thanks for posting!
Thanks for sharing. Dad and all the others that flew and helped keep them flying, I'm sure, are thanking you too.
I saw a Vampire at the Trenton Air Show in Ontario, Canada a couple of years ago. I thought it looked amazing. Unfortunately it wasn't in flying shape. I was so glad to find this video of a flying Vampire! One of my fave planes now! Thanks so much for posting this!
One of my first jobs as a young fella was a customs agent , de Havilland being a client.I would often deliver to their workshops at Bankstown (suburb of Sydney, Aust.) and in those days there were no restrictions and I could wander their hangers and apron at will. Wonderful stuff...absolutely bonza !!The variant in this video was a common sight and I photographed such, a NAVY (RAN) model which was being serviced, during one of my errands.
a Beautiful and graceful aircraft that`s for sure
Indeed. Have you ever had the pleasure of seeing one in the flesh?
@@HistAvFilmUnit - No, unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to do so, even though we actually have some in museums here in Norway.
There are two of these aircraft at the Finnish Aeronautics Museum near Helsinki-Vantaa international airport, as well as a detached Goblin engine which is on display on its own. The planes were used by the Finnish Air Force.
What a fantastic opportunity I had to fly 200 hr in this lovely aircraft. Ex rhodesian air force.n.z.
Vampires make the most wonderful noise!
I used to watch the Vampires when they flew over my house to land at Air Force Station Tambaram in Madras India when they were on the inventory of the Indian Air Force in the 60..’s l can still remember that whistling sound and I would run outside to watch them going into land as my house was just under the flight path of the Air Force Station .Lovely memories and Cher’s from Melbourne Australia .By the way that’s what started me off on my model plane collection .
Nothing like the sound of a Vampire!
EDDIE MEDCALFE WORKED ON THE VAMPIRES BETWEEN 1952 TO 1955 AT RAF PEMBREY S.WALES AND HAD A GREAT TIME
RAF Oakington, 1962. First time I sat in one. Great little plane.
de Havilland Vampire!
Chile first Jet Fighter!
1953-1978
Awesome aircraft and footage!
My Dad used to work on these in the 50's in Iraq and I think maybe Egypt. He used to be in 6th Squadron. He's got some great old photos.
Love the in flight footage
This is NOT the worlds first jet fighter. The first operational jet fighter was the , manufactured by during World War II, which entered service on 19 April 1944 with Erprobungskommando 262 at Lechfeld just south of Augsburg. Thank you for the video.
If you read the title again, it says 'The World's first SINGLE-engined jet fighter'.... no one is arguing that the 262 was not the first operational jet fighter.
My favourite plane!
DriftyWings I seen one of your comments on a GTA 5 video.
@@wxxwantedxxwps4182 hah, that’s funny, what a coincidence :D
Thanks. Nice video and airplane.
Nice plane!... I knew someone that fkew Vampires and crashed a Skyhawk.. cool vid👍🇳🇿
Oh wow!
magnificent sound!!!
Something I noticed about this video is that it was published on the same date that Madame Jenni Rivera died in a plane crash
Had one of these given to our school free of charge in the 70's.
'Flying Kiddie Car' some pilots called it
The jet? M-D A4 Skyhawk?
Nice Wood/Metal aircraft.
that onboard camera is awesome, we all want more onboard footage :D
also. at 0:18 i noticed a skyhawk, is that just a static display, or do we have one that flies now?
It sounds like the MiG 15
+F J M G same engine, Rolls Royce Nene = Klimov VK1
flip inheck Yeah i remember that :)
Nope. DeHavilland Goblin 35.
Surely the Me 163 was the first single engine jet fighter??
Accurately, the Me.163 had a rocket engine, not a jet engine.
@@HistAvFilmUnit Ah!
Que gran avión aunque yo no lo ví yA que ése entonces en Chile no exista 👍 pero debió ser gran avión
I believe John Travolta started his jet piloting in one.
How loud is this aircraft in real life, any aircraft to compare to give perspective
0:18 What's that plane in the background to the right?
A4-K Skyhawk
Historical Aviation Film Unit
Thanks a lot!
As they first flew in 1943 they should had been used because it is clear they could out manoeuvrer the Gloucester meteor ME 262..
come to think of it ? this & few others would have been the front line fighters after Helen Clark sold off the skyhawks !!! lol go new Zulland!!!!!
Buckingham Pyro
Yep. A nice nod to the Vampire that GTA made this the fastest plane in GTA Online.
Aelvir that and the Starling aka the Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet are impossible to outmaneuver and are more lethal than oppressors.
Chancellor Palpatine Indeed~
The vampire's basically a P-38 but with a jet engine
Just because it has a twin-boom configuration?
flip inheck
Maybe those that know the P-38 was a great aircraft
flip inheck
Doesn't change the fact it was extremely effective.
+flip inheck , The P-38 is and was an outstanding long range fighter. Go ask the Japanese or the the Germans. I don't know where you might be getting your information, I would consider a bit more education before putting out a public opinion.
i believe they fixed that problem after the initial models. they counter weighted the elevator or something
1:09 pyro,bersa,rouge lmao
Not the rogue it's the Nokota
I once saw one for sale for 18000 dollars
centrifugal compressor
what the hell happened to de havilland man, they used to make warplanes, and they made the first commercial jet airliner, now they make shitty float planes and civilian prop aircraft
must be a bitch to turn with those tiny ass rudders
Rikard Nilsson doesn't need to often due to its joint tail
Who uses rudders to turn? Roll, bank and yank : )
Pylo！
its the Vampire
It not a vampire it a Buckingham pyro
Woot rnzaf
