Check out the videos for the Flying Heritage Collection's REAL restored FW190A5 and see how different it sounds:

Great find Richie, thanks for sharing!

You really see the tenstion in his face as he is completely focused during the takeoffs and flareouts. The noise in the cockpit is truly intimidating.

I think the microphone or whatever they were using was overwhelmed and is distorting badly, and that makes it sound much more annoying than listening to a vehicle with open exhausts in real life.

With better sound equipment I am betting that the video would have an entire different effect on watchers and listeners.

Wow - that acceleration is what I should expect! Note the get-go from standstill at part throttle. Granted, the plane is light but I'm sure it's not using "max" power, either.

In 4.101 a buddy of mine and I had a drag race (0mph to 100mph) between an overloaded Speedy-Dee (1600 pounder and full fuel, cowl flaps open) and an empty (empty, 10% fuel, cowl flaps closed) 190A-8 and the Speedy-Dee won. LOL.

Yeah I agree, Jumoschwanz. I couldn't get past the first few minutes. I find bad audio to be more distracting than bad video and as such will backtrack out of a video quickly. I appreciate the effort, and am glad the OP shared it, but the sound did me in.
