Very cool aircraft!

"Bulldog" from the movie 'Planes'.

Look at the 1:02 point. The shadow of the prop on the nose looks like the airplane has a grin.

Great video. I have always loved the plane, although I have never seen the model personally.

Couple of things I noticed in this video:

The plane appears to be a ground hog on takeoff. For the amount of horsepower and its weight (vaguely similar to a baby baron) to I would have thought it would break ground a bit more vigorously.

Likewise the pilot did a whole lot of bouncing on landing and it took a long time to get the tail on the ground. Maybe the runway isn't as smooth as it looks? Anybody know what its landing speed is?

Visibility while taxiing must really suck. Not only quite a nose high attitude, but the engines would significantly block the view to the sides. Given this and the above items I suspect it might be quite a handful.

But once again, I'm speculating about things I know nothing about.
