Thank you to all those who served that’s what you call respect.?

[@Phil-m6g]

​@@SebHaarfagre I know, please remember the Empire fought for the British, Im sure you will not have neglected the film Battle of Britain, at the end of the film it lists all the Empires pilots who fought. No offence but there were a LOT more pilots than the Polish and Norwegians, and again if the Polish pilots who were veterans from fighting the German Pilots had shared there Knowledge instead of selfishly keeping it to themselves, the allied losses would have been much lower. Also remember the US went in as a mercenary army and if it hadnt been for a win in September of that year for Britain you would now be a confirmed ess ess. The US would have been a note in history.

[@Minime163]

People have left christianity behind and this is the result. The people who fought in ww2 and indeed the Irish war of independence had very strong principles that led them to beat seemingly insurmountable odds. We on the other hand have very few principles and I doubt if it came to a fight we'd have the appropriate to see it through.

[@grahamstretch6863]

You want goosebumps, I was volunteering at a local nature reserve, when the local Spitfire flew over and started to wheel and roll acrobatically overhead. We were loading hay with pitch forks into a trailer, everyone stopped and looked skyward as I imagine would have been the case if the wheeling and rolling was part of a dogfight. The scene was about as close to going back in time as I could imagine. The back story is we were transporting the hay from a wild flower meadow as seed stock for re wilding a new meadow, hence the open hay and pitchforks instead of baling it. Great video, really brings them alive.

[@paul8161]

@grahamstretch6863 what a lovely story, and your doing great work in preserving the habitat for future generations so great Job.

[@stephengraham1153]

In 1941 my grandfather was posted to RAF St Eval as an MP. My grandmother and father moved from Plymouth to a small village nearby soon after. My father recalled a sunny afternoon when he was walking home with my grandfather along a country lane when they saw a spitfire do a victory roll above the fields. My grandfather, not having much of a sense of occasion was recalled as saying something along the lines of "He'll get in trouble for that".

[@twizzian]

I hope to book a seat on the Lancaster loops one of these days.

What a beautiful sound, there’s nothing better than Rolls-Royce Merlins in unison. Bravo 👏

[@grahamstretch6863]

One of my early memories of Merlins in unison is at 16 or 17 years old, riding on the great Dorset Cycle ride I put myself and 2 schoolmates in a ditch as I was watching the BBMF flight fly over, apparently I can’t cycle and plane spot simultaneously! 🤣 That was 40yrs ago, I’ll pull over carefully and park before plane spotting now!

My father told me about this Big Wing at the weekend. I went to Duxford end of July with my sons, hadn't been for many years, I was staggered at the amount of Spits there (& others!). Including the museum pieces I tried to count - around 25 Spitfires? My favourite tho has always been the F8F bearcat, thank North Weald Fighter Meet in the 80's for that !

[@Biketunerfy]

@@bobsurgranny I was going to Richmond with my dad to pick up his new car at the Subaru garage and we stopped off at the petrol station to get some fuel. I was about 14 years old and out of no where 2 Spitfires and a mustang buzzed the station, no one heard them coming they came from the back of the garage over the top at about 100 to 120 feet up full pelt and the mighty noise of those engines you could feel the concussive sound from the RR Merlin engines in your chest. That was my first foray with the Spitfire after that I was hooked. If I knew they were going to be around the area I’d make an effort to go watch them because hearing them in person is worth it as videos do not do it justice. I seen a P51 Voodoo at even lower and faster in the USA you can see the video of the same bird and it’s crazy how loud they are with a higher pressure supercharger in the engine. Awesome power such a thoroughbred engine RR made.

[@jock-of-ages73]

Wow😮. I've only been under a single Spitfire during a short show at RR Hillington. yrs ago, the thunderous booms from the engine was so unbelievable and unexpected too, I had no idea that it would sound just so intense. Everyone should try getting to any of the Air shows with Spitfires appearing, it's well worth it. Imo. But maybe I'm kinda biased.

[@listerofsmegv987pevinaek5]

Could listen to this all day and night. Know other sound in the world to match it. Sixteen merlins in perfect harmony.

I hear this several times a week in the warmer months. Single Spitfire. The Merlin engine is very distinctive. 👍

[@lynnfisher4396]

We are fortunate to live in South Lincs not far from Coningsby, until the recent Spitfire crash and tragic loss of life of its pilot we saw and heard the Merlin’s regularly, often several Spitfires and Hurricanes together. You cannot get bored of them, we always stop and go to look at them whatever we are doing, the same impact too….shivers down the spine and a humble feeling of what they represent.

I occasionally see a WW2 fighter fly overhead, a spitfire or a hurricane for example. They’re easily distinguished from the hobby planes we get by the deep roar of the engine. We even had a pair of Lancasters with a spitfire and a hurricane fly overhead about ten years ago, the sound was incredible. A colleague was in his loft when they fly over his house, so he only heard them.

[@markorollo.]
