AMAZING SOUND! | PZL M-18 Dromader - Cockpit Tour, Start-Up, Takeoff, Low Passes | Mosquito Control
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
A few days ago i had an opportunity to film something that i never have before... some agricultural aviation action! 4 PZL-Mielec M-18 Dromader crop dusters and 2 An-2s were used in a mosquito control action in the fields and areas around and in Belgrade. In this video i will only focus on the Dromader, An-2 will come in some upcoming videos.
Anyways, it is not an everyday thing to see radial piston engines in action. Nearly 1000hp of pure, earth shaking power! The pilots were very kind to let me film from so up close, and inside one of the planes.
Enjoy in this amazing sound, and quite an interesting sight!

When Poland used to make planes!!! Cheers Brothers!!!
A well-maintained, good running old workhorse. Kudos to the cameraman.

I started firebombing in radial Droms. Now turbine Garrett powered, the performance is up but the character of the piston radial is gone. Excellent machine for ag work too and I enjoyed that too. Every radial start was like waking a living beast. A bit heavy on the controls and very trim sensitive but overall, a wonderful experience and a good safe workhorse. Much respect for Eastern Block aircraft. Tough as nails.
I grew up around these until we turbine converted all of them around 2010. It brings back a lot of memories
Really beautiful filming of these magnificent aircraft. Thank you for sharing this.

2000 liters capacity in the hopper. Cockpit cage stressed to about 20 Gs. Ag pilots the world over are the best. My first real job was loading ag chemicals and fueling a Rockwell Thrush Commander. Nothing like those old radial engined beasts. Don’t see many with radials anymore-turboprops have largely replaced them. The bird I serviced had a 600 hp radial from a T-6 trainer.
Beautiful purpose built aircraft.
My cousin had a flying service in Arkansas and had several Of these planes. I flagged many hours under Ag Cats, Ah Tractors, etc. nothing like the roar of a radial engine passing over.

Good for that old man. I am seventy and he looks old enough to be my twin brother. Nice video of him doing what he has been around doing for most likely a lot of years and quite possibly in that same plane. Showing him doing flyby after flyby at 300-400+ feet on the same run over the airfield turning his sprayers on and off was a nice little tribute. The marvel of it all is that he is still around and still climbing in the cockpit and flying around. Only in Serbia maybe. He nor the plane could probably pass on an annual while insurance and the paperwork to operate would be impossible to obtain in a place like the U.S.
Oh boy! Look at the size of the wing on that puppy!

Well there are still certain number of this version with radial engine. This is Russian type, same is at Antonov-2 But there are more turbo propeller versions. You can recognize them by a very long nose, as this type of engine is much lighter, so in order to keep the center of gravity you must move lighter engine more forward. Otherwise construction of wings and fuselage is unchanged.

@@JarekOd Not clearly. Dromader has a lot of parts of Thrush, but new fuselage, central part of the wing, more powerful engine (Thrush had only 600hp)... Besides the remaining parts had to be redesigned to use metric system, I guess.
Dromader rulez!
I have a little over 2100 hours in an M18-A. It was hard to find a place to park when you were on a busy airport. 58 foot wingspan if I remember.
Fantastic!!

My Dad and I had 5 round engines and the planes are some of the toughest on the market. Great flying real forgiving for mistakes. Converted 2 over to turbines would not recommend let the factory build them to beef up wing attach fittings, but overall just a great airplane.
Love those old radials..

I understand that the Wright R-1820 was license built in USSR. Used in a number of aircraft like the AN-2, the B17, early DC3. Looks alot like the Wright R-1820.
My dream is to see some of this utility aircrafts in the next MadMax movie....
Honestly looks like something Id rattle up in my shed :)

Checked out on a Pezetel Dehavilland Otter today. Shakes like hell, and performs like an animal. Would love to see a Dromader up close.

Yeah, I use to own a car that sounded like that when idling. Turns out the muffler had holes in it and the ol' 307 was worn out. I fixed it with a new exhaust system and a freshly rebuilt 396.

Who likes the placement of the fiberglass tank directly aft of the engine and 'fore of the pilot. Maybe a secondary containment tank in case of terrain?
The Americans put a P&W PT-6 turboprop on it, then added bomb racks.The Canadians took off the bomb racks ands made into a fire fighting aircraft with floats.
