Great combat footage already – seems new stuff and if that’s CGI then it’s mighty impressive 😮

😮 Jeeze that was close….. listening to the ATC chat there was a lot going on at the same time unless it’s been edited down?

you learn something every day. I always understood it was unique to a certain Mark of Hunters

It usually is, and is subject to much debate too…. With a Hunter fitted with the 4x cannon ports you’ll get a “Blue Note” when the harmonics are right with airspeed etc…
The Meteor has cannon ports too – hence the same effect at the right speed.

Looking forward to catching up with you at Kemble next weekend Neil 😉

Hope the JP is all nice and shiney for ‘that’ photoshoot we’ve got planned 😀

Having seen and heard Graham’s Spitfire in Birmingham last Monday (see other thread) I can vouch for it’s awesomeness…. :diablo:

Spitfire In Birmingham Visited!

Popped along this afternoon to say hi to Graham and see the Spitfire for myself… Couldn’t have timed it better as he was just about to start it up as I arrived, so a nice Video was taken and is now uploaded to YouTube:

What an impressive sight and sound it was! Nice to meet Graham and have a good nose around the Spitfire… The 10 years of hard work was evident throughout, and hearing the Meteor reverberating around the surrounding buildings was awesome!
Some photos of the Lord Mayor’s Show which this was part of, including the obligatory shot of two forum members – as you do 😀

Thanks to Graham for inviting me behind the barriers for a close-up look, and nice to chat about the work that’s gone into this stunning Replica and star of Film & TV 😉

Pete

Thanks for the reply Graham – I will be popping down after lunch then 😀

Realy want to catch one of the runs 😀
