Great shots .., can you imagine being a Zero pilot and see one of these coming after you ..? One of my favorite aircraft next to the P-51 ..and as noted “don’t forget the P-38 .. In the Movie “God Is My Co-Pilot” it was a star...
The P-38 was also a star in "A Guy Named Joe"

Slower shutter speed allows for realistic prop blur. The technical challenges increase however. Bracketing can help narrow in on the variables of a given shoot, ie: lens, light, distance, speed. Panning becomes essential.

Don't forget the P-47 Thunderbolt. The "Jug" was a tough old bird.

You know what is terrifying about these old aircraft? Some of us Hoggers are old enough to remember when F4U4, P-38 Lightning and P-51 Mustang were first line fighters.
