BS ! A lot of research was done to eradicate the unrealistic BS bouncing tacho. Research included talking to current spitfire pilots using RR Merlins (Mechanical Direct drive tachos) and Packard Merlins with Electrical drive tachos. In addition the relevant Maintenance engineers were talked to. In all cases both the pilots and the engineers stated unequivocally that little or no Bounce occurred in either of the systems..... This was the reason it was removed.
