Most of us love the Mustang. Although there’s been a decade-long debate about what warbird is “sexier,” the Mustang or the Spitfire, we honestly don’t care. They’re both great, they both have numbers behind them to prove they were worthy fighters and when it comes to aesthetics, they’re both beautiful.

As for this video, it’s just fire, pun intended. The pilot had to crank the engine for a little bit before the engine came alive, but that fire-breathing exhaust was a pleasure to watch. Check out the video for yourself. It’s extremely captivating.
