Meet the McDonnell F2H Banshee US Navy Jet Fighter - 1948

Produced by McDonnell aircraft, this film served as an introduction to their newest jet, the F2H2, and details it's numerous improvements over the companies first jet fighter, the FH-1 Phantom. You'll get a walk-around of the aircraft and see her doing spectacular aerobatics. Then you'll get a look inside the McDonnell assembly line to see FH2 construction and inside a Westinghouse engine plant to see production and testing of her compact yet powerful J34 axial flow turbojets. Finally, you'll see her high and low speed performance capabilities, including mock carrier landings and outstanding single engine performance. I restored this video. Get this film plus two more on our "Screamin' Banshees: The McDonnell F2H Goes to War" DVD.Includes an F2H pilots' manual. http://bit.ly/11MfDyg
