Will This WW1 British Fighter Plane Start After 15 Years?

First Flight After 15 Years

Can this WWI British Fighter replica start after 15 years? Jimmy from Jimmy’s World on YouTube takes us on a wild journey yet again, as we find out whether his SE5 kit plane (not the actual SE5) and powered by a Volkswagen four-cylinder. Kind of ironic that a German engine is powering a British WWI fighter. 

And surprisingly, it did and we absolutely love the sound of those engines! The engine sounds are pretty good- these guys did a great job of getting it running. We also love the fact that this old replica plane did get fired up. Can’t wait to see these things in the air!

Is this the type of plane that you’d like to own?

We’d like to hear from you, let us know in the comments!
