Nice!

Hopefully this classic Merlin flyby sound will replace the current diesel trucks that our Spits and Hurries sound like in Cliffs of Dover. Perhaps Black6 can forward this to Luthier with a note saying, simply, "Like THIS, Ilya!!!!"

S!

They would just need to travel to Duxford during summer to get the sounds. And I am more than confident that the Duxford crew would be more than helpfull if told why the recording is needed

It's so weird how something like that can stir up so much emotion but it did give me goosebumps!

The Hurricane from the first post? Hmm I don't think so. The Spitfire in one of the videos further down has a griffon, but that first Hurricane certainly didn't sound like a griffon engine.

Did the Hurricanes even use griffon engines? I don't think they ever did.

Hey, if 1C can fit diesel engines into our Spits and Hurries, why not a Griffon in a Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Hurricane IIc? LOL

EDIT: clarification - when flying in CoD the sound of a Spit or Hurri alongside me sounded vaguely familiar.....and then it hit me. Sounds almost identical to an 18-wheeler's diesel engine beside me on the 401 when I'm cruisin' on my Hog! Conclusion: 1C shoehorned a flippin' diesel engine into our beloved Spits 'n Hurries!!!! LOL

THAT'S IT! IT DOES! A diesel! Sounds like a gear jammin semi truck. Good call Snapper. It always eluded me as to what it sounded like and that is spot on. Rather than the Battle of Brittan theme I have East Bound and Down in my head now.
