ElAurens i found a video where those P-47's Wicked Wabbit and Hun Hunter XVI fly together, and everything from Wicked Wabbit pilot's perspective, with a cam on his helmet!

Very interesting to know the cockpit and how it works from live inside

Interesting stuff. Although I know quite a lot about the details of these aircraft, the mechanicals and how they work I will never understand as well you folks do!

At least that is how I remember it.


If I’m not mistaken, the turbo compound had turbines mechanically connected to the crankshaft, or a blowdown turbine. Just one type was ever produced: the Wright R3550. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wright_R-3350

Yes, that is the one I was thinking of.
