Too good not to share

From the wonderful "Piece of Cake" mini series, the late Ray Hanna flying a Spit under a bridge.

Simply glorious, just listen to that Merlin and her supercharger!

Thanks guys, pleased you like it too, one of the best sounds in the world as well!

Yeah, who needs illegal substances when the sound of a Merlin can bring such euphoria?

I could be talking to the prettiest lady in the world, and if I heard that sound overhead she'd wonder what happened to me. lol

 

[Spitfire]

The merlin sound - ah yes.
I actually have downloaded that sound to my PC - what do you think it sounds like, when I get an e-mail? That's right...

I LOVE that low pass one. It's almost unbelievable how low he is! At the Reading air show last year the Lancaster was there. 4 merlins roaring away! Merlin and the wright cyclone radials some of my favorite sounds. I had a ride in a B-17 and a B-24. Incredible! I call it Happy Noise. Never tire of hearing it.

I need a cigarette now.

Good man Teekay, sounds like you had a ball at Reading.

And good job being a Merlin man
