Cadillac of the Sky

Found this clip for a comment on another thread. But it’s my favorite ever scene from a Spielberg movie. I’m putting it here just because the P-51 is a beauteous predator in every way, its looks, power, agility, deadliness, and above all its symphonic sound. Turn the volume up as high as you can stand it. I don’t mean to insult anyone by pointing out that the waggling wings you see before the closeup are the pilot’s greeting to the schoolboy prisoner Christian Bale. Enjoy.
