Few things sing such beautiful music than the sound of radial engines on takeoff. Wish there was a camera person at the other end to capture those growling engines. Loved Sky King episodes as a kid and now and then still watch my DVDs of the show.
Hello, yes, I also like this nice airfield with some oldtimer airplanes based there and visiting makes it a great place to be and to film, so happy you like it too, have a Good Day !
This C45 was restored by Wade King Sims on St. Simons Island, GA back in the 90s. Note the registration - 45SK (C45 Sky King) We completely stripped all the WWII era avionics out of it and put in modern Bendix-King stuff and he used it to fly back-and-forth between PDK and SSI with his bride and 3 Corgis. It's a terrific plane. It also has air-conditioning. Thanks for uploading this.

Especially when sky king had the Cessna bobcat.
Hello, yes I also started watching Sky King episodes now, saw the Bobcat, Navion and an Electra landing in the desert ! Have a Good Day !
Great video. A feast for ears and eyes. Somehow the combination of sounds and even the livery against the trees is spot on.

Notice how much rudder input on takeoff. Wouldn’t notice if you didn’t watch the rudder. Sign of a good pilot
