Fan-frickin-tastic!!! :excited: The only thing that might improve the video would be some head banging rock music to mask the sounds of the engines, instruments, wind over the canopy, etc. :hide: Kidding!! :lol: Great video! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thank you Mr Sporran! :excited: :excited: :welldone: :welldone:
Didn't know it was so noisy in Heaven!
I Thought all the British aircraft had synchronised engines - these didn't sound so.
Add it to the list of stuff I don't know. :$
Cheers, Mike.

Dont forget that one flew with the engines out of sync as it fooled the early sound ranging devices - as well as one ears. I dont think sync devices came in until the Viscount?

Tat is where I get my doubt as the Viscount was lauded for having a sync system that could be set up from one engine. but even there that's not on take off
