P-47D at the Hahnweide Oldtimer-Meeting 2019, flown by Jon Gowdy. Aircraft is powered by a Pratt & Whitney R2800 18cyl. Radial engine with over 2500hp. Engine Startup went a little smoky. It`s a common thing for radial engines to collect some oil in the lower cylinders. That gets burned on engine start. The B-47 Thunderbolt os one of the biggest and heaviest fighters of WWII with very strong armament. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_P-47_Thunderbolt Airshow: http://oldtimer-hahnweide.de/home.php Music: The 126ers - The low seas
