Flyin' warbirds today.......
...and this bird's one of the greatest ever in my opinion Cool

Thanks 4 looking

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Wonderful.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Err no, it IS the best ever Wink

But the Fw-190 is a close second Wink

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
