For shame, call yourself an enthusiast :diablo: mistaking a radial for a merlin! tisk tisk
Whoops :o. All i can say in my defence was that i had the M11 traffic noise blowing this way as well… so at least i didn’t think it was a Scania..:p

It does explain why it sounded rough though!

Sorry to disappoint you all, but it was actually the Flug Werke 190 having a high power blast on our tie-down point by the M11 in the dark. Apparently the flames out of the stacks were awesome. Unfortunately some of us were grafting down in the ARC part of T2 and for once couldn’t get any pictures…:eek:
.. a very rough sounding Merlin or Griffon running up in the dark. Any ideas?

Won’t be a Griffon all the late spits got rid of.:(
There’s ONE left at DX, isn’t there?

& the fact that a Griffon sounds like a “rough running Merlin”
So it’s either a rough running Merlin, or a normally running Griffon 😉

Brian, the ARCO/HFL hangar was open and lit so maybe it emanated from one of their fleet.
