• Mustang Sally - P-51D ...
**Interview with owner / pilot Menno Parsons**
We go on-board with Menno Parsons in his P-51D Mustang named Mustang Sally at the 2012 Rand Air Show held in Johannesburg earlier this year. Added to the on-board view of his display we also get some epic aerial footage of Mustang Sally in flight filmed by Jonathan Genis from HeliMedia.

If only I still lived in South Africa, would love to see an airshow like this.
Imagine the outer worldly joy the cadets at the air academy felt in the 40s when they were told they were selected for fighter pilot training and would soon fly the famous Mustang. But it was probably the same in Germany, flying the 109 and 190, and in RAF flying the Spitfire.
That was one of the most beautiful 3 point landings I have seen in a long time
It was not a 3 point
The camera angle makes you really appreciate how much foot work this thing takes on take off / landings.
Yeh...the propeller torque pulls the plane to the left. Lock the tail wheel and give it right rudder as needed.
Looks extremely intense, mentally and physically. I couldn't imagine what it must have been like, going against the best Germany had to offer.
Great Video. I like the Multi Cam Mode. Rudder is very busy, to keep her on the narrow Airstrip....thx for posting
I could only fly in ultralights for a moment I felt the flight of a mustang thank you for this moment congratulations Angel from Spain
Wow even though this is display flying ,respect ! I have sat on a Welsh mountain amidst the remains of a U.S.A.F P-51 and this vid gives a hint of what it was like for those young men !
Great pilot...great video
I wonder how many kids in their back yard were looking up and said " holy shit it's a M U S T A N G !"
Had a friend watch this sitting three feet from his 75' wide screen. He was banking with the plane and leaning backwards and forwards. The funniest thing I ever saw. Oh... and he got sick right afterwards :) Yeah I know... with friends like me who needs.......... but still funny as hell.
I had 3 eargasms !! Life is good.
Great view ! - My dad flew P51D Mustangs in WW2 also. I guess thats the same view he would have had.
Thank you so much for posting this awesome video. As a pilot, I really appreciate it because I will probably never get a chance to fly the greatest airplane ever made... Love the Rolls Royce logo on your jacket too.
Thank you for posting. Also, thank you for not covering the sound with music until the end.
Lovely to see our American cousins proudly wearing A RR Badge.
See you soon! Can't wait!
Thank you very much
Nice landing!!!
Right on the piano keys...
So so good. I will ride in one of these one day I swear!
I love the way the pilot looks around him all the time....there must have been an FW-190 around somewhere!!🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧
WHAT A VIDEO!!! LOVE THIS PLANE SO MUCH!!!
What a beauty
Great video!
That's was just seriously BAD ASS !!!!
They are such fun to fly in. Had some great times in mine over the decades....Thanks for the upload.
Omg the engine sound is just awsome!
Merlin, made in Britain, taken from the Spitfire.
@@tristramgordon8252 SPITFIRE HAD NO RANGE. P51 FLEW TO GERMANY AND BACK AWESOME RANGE
What a AWESOME video Man those this move FAST for a prop plane fantastic edit job to. One day I WILL fly one of these I promises that to myself FOR SURE
I was lucky to get a ride in it with it's previous owner in the USA
Those markings are legendary. The 4th FG destroyed around 180 planes all by themselves on one of the German airbases in Bavaria in the winter of 1945. There's some really cool artwork depicting it online
Awesome video! That ground comes up pretty fast. Very impressive plane
Nice video. THANKS!! for posting!!
Wow, touched down RIGHT past the displaced threshold. Now that's some precision flying!
That is an awesome video thanks for the ride along!
OMG! Thank you! Fairwinds!
Growing up all we ever heard about was the legendary Spitfire. Later I learned about the P 51 and the amazing Corsair in WW2. I have seen the Corsair in Boeing field, Seattle and was really surprised how big that plane is. Talking about raw power whew it was crazy.
@@IcyTorment Made me think back when I made a Hellcat Model in my teens.
Absolutely the best music I have ever heard put to an awesome flight video. I wish others would do the the same.
Hell of a pilot, good flying
in the war pilots were only 19 to 20 years old
Imagine flying a P51 for a bomber escort mission on a cold day deep into the heart of Germany. You've been flying for two to three hours from your base in England with a giant 12 cylinder merlin engine roaring in front of you and a nothing but a bubble canopy and thin sheet metal between you and -55F at 20,000 feet. THREE HOURS of that had to be exhausting, then topped by a sudden furball of planes everywhere in the sky shooting at each other. If you survived the dogfighting, when your fuel got low it was two to three hours of the same thing back to England again. Amazing...
That begs question: How did those pilots on such long sorties handle having to pee? Did they use catheters in those days? The other thing is the noise level. That had to be horrible on the ears. Tinnitis anyone?
Thank you very much for this video. For many people, the best combat-aircraft ever.
The song of engine is awesome.
Lucky man nice ride i love p51 mustangs
PERFECT VIDEOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Words can NOT describe how ORGASMIC this would be for me!!
My dream is to fly one of these planes before I did. This and a Corsair :)
see that logo on the back of his shirt?? that plane is nothing without that awesome powerplant engine. and I have to say, he's one lucky man, what a pilot too. he makes it almost talk.
Alex Stockl i have to say they are both best of piston engined fighter aircraft technology. the merlin is an amazing engine that powered not only the P51 but the spitfire and lancaster as well as others. both legneds in their own right. the spitfire was the "hero" of the battle of britain. that single aircraft stopped hitler's lLuftwaffedead in its tracks despite numericial advantage of the german air force. mustang and spitfire are probably equal in ever aspect except for the mustang's vastly superior range, which i never really understood as they were powered by virtually the same engine which would probably produce the same fuel economy in both types of aircraft. did the mustang just have larger fuel tanks?
+andrew donohue I believe the difference was the P51 had drop fuel tanks which greatly increased range.
@@ad356 you're underestimating the Hurricane, shot down more German planes than the Spit did Battle of Britain
There will never be a more beautiful and historic aircraft.
Great video work Hilton Mundy. Just superb footage of a fantastic aircraft
Awesome!
Must watch that again! Would of been tempting to buzz the highway too. Thanks for the vid.
with the cockpit noise,you can easily figure out what was a 8 hour mission in Europe or the Pacific...I have a huge respect for these young boys who made my parents free from tiranny.
MrSebfrench76 Its not nearly that bad with headphones/helmet but yeah it still sucks
I love it Mustang P-51 with sound. I wish ride in. anyway thumb up
This is an incredible video, great quality and perspective. Thank you! When I win the Lottery I'll be flying formation with you ;)
That bit at the end rolling the canopy back was freaky. Almost looked like he was rolling the seat forward LOL.
Sensacional, Este Clássico, aviao Mustang P.51, este aviao é o melhor entre todos os avioes de Guerra, Eu AMO este aviao Mustang P.51 da segunda Guerra Mundial, ESTE PILOTO FOI SENSACIONAL, MOSTRANDO O P.51 DE CIMA IMAGEM FILMAGEM EXCELENTE, ADOOOREI PARÁBENS. AVIAO MUSTANG P51 É O MELHOR DE TODOS OS AVIOES ATÉ HOE.
I like how he keeps his head on a swivel on the lookout for FW 109s.☝😁
GREAT!
The Cadillac of the skies ;)
Interesting to note that the rpm seems to be (almost) the same throughout the entire display. I'd never thought about it before but it seems like the throttle kind of "Set it and forget it".
AWSOME MY FAVORITE WARBIRD
A great ride in a great aircraft. Thanks Mr. Parsons for a superb performance. As for Charles R. you better have 6.5 mil for the rest that goes with Mustang ownership.
awsome
Beutifull landing 👍👍👍
So COOL!
Amazing video, the engine sounds like it is just idling away. Are you running 50% power?
Melhor vídeo do mustang p51 showwwwwwww
this is......... AMAZING how you could do and make us feel like we were on the plane
trying to buy a p51. 1.5mil short of the1.5 mil price
ROFL :D .. same here bro :p
Try to fly P51 in DCS World for free.
Sou muito fã do p51 penso que se não fosse ele os EUA e aliados teriam sofrido bem mais na 2 guerra! Lindo vôo!
wish I could give this more than 1 Like !!
Im trying to turn my head to move the camera...too much track IR
Awesome vid :)
Nice Menno!
Awesome RESPECT
if i can fly one of those and maybe a FW190....my life would be complete
Hard working man!
Unfortunately the closest I will ever be to flying in one of these beauties.
That looks cool
It is stunning just how fortunate some people are.
Why is it that he take off with this high tail ? The prop must be less than a inch from the tarmac. Most of the taildraggers i fly would skip the propeller if i do that.
Great plane
Damn that was sweet...
It's amazing how high it will climb with little to no effort. Just curios, in an attack how long would it have taken a pilot to get in the air?
Can anyone tell me why the propeller looks like that in the video?
Cool
The camera's frame rate does not match the speed of the propeller, it does not record enogh pictures per second to show the complete motion of it. (this explanation might not be entirely correct)
u r correct
You could see he was fighting the touq
Must have really long legs to reach those rudder pedals after winding that seat right back. Certainly a handful to fly.
a jolly good jolly that was.
Meu sonho voar em um desses!
so fucking awesome
Amazing. Does the pilot ever look at the gauges? It's like he's just seeing where he wants to go and goes there. I've heard that you didn't sit inside these warbirds...you strapped yourself to one and held on. LOL
Yup, that's the way you fly. You just "go there."
I had the luck tfor a ride in ScatVII last Year. She flies, where you think she should. I was surprised by the easy handling.
Someone get that man a leather flying helmet and some mk111 goggles.
My mind would be toast!!!
Looks like the Red Tails Squadron paint scheme.
Anyone know what the dB level is in the cockpit?
extremely high! u could scream at the top of your lungs an not hear your own voice. i flew back seat once.
i just notes the 6 .50 cals on the wings
I imagine he was just running 46" MP on the takeoff roll instead of full 61" MP (which would sound orgasmic)
Or I'm getting it all wrong...
Oh, ok. Thanks!
With the freeways and cloverleafs on the ground it looks like LA.
Johannesburg, South Africa (in winter) but you can be forgiven for thinking it's LA - I've heard a lot of people say it looks similar.
