[View \| Download]	Four P-47 Thunderbolts: ROLLING AMERICAN THUNDER !! By octane130 This is a video of four P-47 Thunderbolts taxiing at the 2005 Planes of Fame Airshow at Chino, California. Now this is what I call ROLLING AMERICAN THUNDER! This airshow featured FIVE Thunderbolts taking to the air. The fifth Thunderbolt (the Planes of Fame's own P-47G) is visible parked on the left at the end of the video. Steve Hinton flew the P-47G in an aerobatic display and also filled in between the other flying sequences, so this P-47 is not shown taxiing in the video. Actually, SIX Thunderbolts were present at the show. The sixth Jug was the Yanks Air Museum's (also based at Chino) YP-47M. However, the YP-47M did not fly. This was one of the very first videos I took with my first video camera, a tiny Sony, so please take it easy on me :). The flying sequences didn't turn out so well so I didn't include them but I felt that the sight of these four monsters taxiing should be presented for others to enjoy! This was truly a sight to behold. If you'd like, please also check out my other YouTube warbird videos.

[View \| Download]	Restored Vintage Northrop N9MB Flying Wing---Rare Sight ! By octane130 This is a video that I took of the Planes of Fame Museum's (Chino, California) Northrop N9MB Flying Wing while performing a display at the Palm Springs Air Museum in 2006. This aircraft was painstakingly restored over a 13-year period. As part of the November 1941 contract that Northrop was awarded for the proposed XB-35 Flying Wing included the construction of four, 1/3-scale aircraft, designated N9M, that were to act as flying test beds for various flight systems and also to familiarize Air Force pilots with flying-wing operations. The Planes of Fame Flying Wing in this video is one of those aircraft, and the only one remaining. Aviation greats such as Jack Northrop himself, Chuck Yeager and Bob Hoover actually flew this exact aircraft. I understand that this aircraft has a lot of idiosyncrasies that every pilot that ever flew her fell prey to, with interesting results! Unfortunately, this aircraft experienced an in-flight engine fire just a short time after this video was taken in its left, 300 hp., 8-cylinder Franklin 0-540-7 engine. Pilot Ron Hackworth skillfully landed the aircraft safely. The Flying Wing has since been pretty much restored, but the restoration of the rare Franklin 0-540-7 engine is another matter. There were only about 27 of these engines ever built and it is believed that only three of them exist today. The needed parts may be newly manufactured as necessary, but the factory drawings are needed. They have not yet been located to my knowledge, as of Nov. 2007. Given the resourcefulness of the Planes of Fame people, this aircraft will once again fly the skies of Southern California. But in the meantime, enjoy the rare video of this historic aircraft!
