Arthur,

Moggy is spot on, the Irish havent stopped moaning about the Brits and theyve been at it for over a hundred years. When u have a minute, just do a quick Google search on the “Northern Ireland Troubles”. And when they werent moaning they were blowing us up. Bex

my comments

I point my views to this thread: London: Car bombs found (Tiger Tiger night club, Haymarket) & Cockspur St.

As this tread was unavailable at this time in GD:

If I had a brain Id be dangerous 🙂

I agree, when fitting propellers to Griffons (or Merlins) with a torque wrench, the engine starts to turn at about 500 lb ft. The only reason you can pull them through by hand is because the blades are over 6ft long. Surely it would take a windspeed of at least 200mph to turn them?
As for one engine being tighter than the rest, there may be a grain of truth in that as engines do vary, but unless the difference is minute then that engine must be Shagged. Would you want to fly knowing one engine was tight to turn? Don`t think so.

Oooops, sorry Pete, I forgot about you when it came to Griffons, post suitably ammended. Bex

Nicknames

Ive done the same as Barnowl, my nickname is “Bex” short for Rebecca, and I thought an aviation link would be ideal as this is an aviation forum, so WH773 was added as Im restoring the Old Lady. Bex

Hmmm yes I can see a few P51 fans throwing a wobbly. Bet the pilot had a brown trousers moment. As for the woman, its a close call as to what was the most scary, her or the iffy landing LoL Oh and her irritating voice or should that be screeching. :rolleyes: :diablo: Bex
