Turn the noise up to LOUD for this one!
One Allison and a whole bunch of Packard-Merlins!

Now that's the kind of music I like.
Many thanks Peter.

Glad you enjoyed it Gents! I wish I could have flown behind a Merlin but alas it was not to be

However, I did fly once as a passenger on an airliner...a DC something that had four Merlins and I did visit the flightdeck. The flight was from Khormaksar to Nairobi.

Would it have been this, Peter?
