Thank you both. It would have bugged me till I remembered it.

Yes brilliant story First class Video. Very well researched and produced, watched it many times. It has been on here a few times but its a good idea to mention it again for the benefit of new members and anyone that’s missed it.

Packard USA produced Merlin engines under licence from Rolls Royce to increase production quantity, hence the Bendix Aviation Stromberg carburettor. As to its monetary value. Well what ever anyone would be prepared to pay for it. Is there any known history with it?

More RFC WW1 Vintage. Just found this on Zenith.

That’s great news. Though I bet a short run. The trip to New York = One ton of fuel per passenger.

Nuf said here. Time to put this thread to bed don’t you. :sleeping: I mean its Boring. Yeah sure I know don’t read it then, I wont. But all its doing is scaring potential new members away. :stupid:

I suppose one of the difficult things with a forum such as this is that you never really know how your posts come across; I’ve gone back to posts that I’ve written weeks before, in the heat of an argument, and been really surprised, even shocked, at what I’ve written, or rather how it sounded.

Yeah same here. Worst is when you hit the send or post button and its like a shock wave hits you. Oh Heck! Wish I hadn’t said that now. Its amazing how a written sentence and a spoken one can easily be interpreted in two completely different ways.

Oh! Another thing Do not post after a couple of beers.:very_drunk: NOT RECOMMENDED. Specially if you feel fired up about something. :mad::rolleyes:

Well put and with a hands on approach 🙂

Thank you Trumper. Listen Guys. The youngsters also will monitor this forum and will easily be frightened off by replies being to technically over the top, or ranting off with politics (Not necessary), on a topic, which I have noticed on some posts. Who knows this forum could well I hope contribute to the next generation of our enthusiasts of aviation heritage.
