I love the way the A-36 sounds a bit different to the P-51's

Wrong type of Merlins.  They have to be mounted in a Spitfire or a Mosquito.

Failing that, the engine of any Aston Martin.  Preferably a V12.

Wonderful!  :thumbsup:

After the first 10-20 seconds I routed the sound through my hi-fi system instead of my headphones. Goodness KNOWS what the neighbours thought.  ;D ;)

Do Packard Merlins sound different to Rolls Royce Merlins? I'd not have thought so, there being only a few thou difference between the umpteen million bits.

No, I've not started being on Facebook, I got the link from another forum I'm on.

Could have done with a longer focal length lens but the sound track's good. Don't miss the kids doing their 'I'm an aeroplane' thing in the foreground.  ;D
