Gene McNeely presents his racing North American AT-6 Texan with impressive style. Turn up the speakers as this race-tuned Pratt & Whitney R-1340-AN-1 Wasp radial engine (nominally 650 hp) sings like a opera tenor hitting a high C. This is what is known as a Buzz-job! The prop tips are going supersonic which makes the distinctive rasping noise. Gene is flying by at around 230mph but it seems a lot faster! Low and graceful with nicely executed aerobatics. Gene shows how it's done.
