10 Merlins
Just found some nice footage of the Lanc pair along with a couple of Spits taken at the Eastbourne show.

Re: 10 Merlins
Nothing comes close to sound of those Merlins but to hear Double is really great, speakers turned right up
The pair will be flying near where i live over the next month or so, i will be able to hear them live! some great formation flying from the crew in that clip.
Thanks for posting,
Roger.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

Re: 10 Merlins
I just played it through while trying to pause it at the right moment and it looks like a lens flare to me. The sun is above the view of the lens but shining into it as it pans around so it's quite possible to get a flash of reflected light within the lens barrel.

If that doesn't send a shiver up your back, nothing will. Thanks Larry.Tako_Kichi wrote:Just found some nice footage of the Lanc pair along with a couple of Spits taken at the Eastbourne show.

What IS it about them? It's like a necessary part of life -seeing the sea, blue sky etc.
