from 0:54 to 0:57 what I see is eccessive usage of rudder. In my modest experience I think he made a wrong entering in the roll from the top, and then made some corrections with the rudder that caused that yawing. Dont forget u r dealing with a 1.500 HP engine and a very small rudder.. I’d focus my remarks on the height, more than the manouver in itself.

r u guys referring to the half cuban eight? I see a bad done one, with some rudder overcontrol, which might seem like a lose of control, but it’s nothing so terrifying… What I say though is that this chap is a lil exhuberant when flying her, that is for sure…

I really have no clue.. what I can tell you though is that the T-6/SNJ/Harvard has one of the strongest wings I’ve ever seen. The wing is divided in three sections: the two external wings and the center wingroot, upon which the fuselage structure is bolted. Each wing is attached to center wingroot by means of a 116 bolts running along the airfoil plus 12 to connect the wing spar, so as u can easily guess the wing itself is a really solid structure. U need a REALLY excessive wing load to break it, or (as I’ve read in some air force reports of the 60s) an improper loading of the dynamometric (right?) tool, that if used on a serie of nearby bolts, under heavy G loads might cause the breaking of them and the stressing of all the other bolts, with obvious consequences. The wing junctions are under the rounded fairings running all over the airfoil.

that’s great, I guess the main problem in the future will be about engine availability though..

u need an engineer for dis kinda questions.. I guess a Griffon Spit blade might weight some 50kg? If u want to be sure find a blueprint of the prop, get the size of the thing and apply the specific weight of aluminium 😉

i hesitated for a second but no, that’s no G.50V, I’m 110% sure, and it’s no G.55 at all, I almost know the G.55 by heart!
Completely different landing gears, canopy, wing and tail section.
It’s a postwar plane (there are no swastikas, but the postwar finnish insigna), and it’s not a morko morane either.. I’ve seen those landing gears before but cannot remember where!

uh, btw the french twin engine is a bregeut br.690

proplover, I guess it’s even a matter of certification, I mean in what cathegory u certify the plane.
