Two Minutes of Aviation Majesty
 

For WW II aviation buffs, this is something to see. If you were not able to make it to England July 12-13 at The Imperial War Museum in Cambridgeshire to see it in-person, watching this 2:30 minute video might send chills up your spine.

Any idea as to what planes were shown? I know only a few...

Goosebumps!

We get to see a smattering of the old warbirds at the Thunder in the Valley airshow here every year, but to see that many in one place at one time is awesome.

Just right off the top of my head, I recognized P-40s, P-51s, BF 109 Messerschmits, P-38s, Spitfires, Corsairs...Maybe a Hurricane or two...

P-51, Catalina, P-40, Thunderbolt, Corsair, B-17, B-25, C-47, P-38, I don't know what the Bi-planes are.

In addition to those already mentioned, the Russian bi-plane was a Polikarpov I-15. Also saw at least one Focke Wulf Fw-190, a P-47D Thunderbolt, a C-47 "Dakota" (DC-3), at least 3 Hawker Hurricanes, four Hawker Furys (biplanes), and a couple of Hawker SeaFurys, a TBM Avenger, F-4F Wildcat, F-6 Hellcat, F-8 Bearcat, F-7 Tigercat, an a [D]ouglass AD-1, and perhaps a few more that I'll have to think about for a bit longer. Oh, and the pre-WWI monoplane was a Blériot XI, I think.
