I think that it would be an excellent idea! I would definitely go and see what a spitfire firing 8 brownings,live or blanks, against the butts at DX, I believe i have seen a wartime photograph of a hurricane doing similar, although not with blanks of course, at night, and it looked suitably dramatic! and frightening.

however i know several hippies who would rather not be insulted by the use of the term “tree hugger” to describe the anti-noise *******s in DX village!

Are there not laws which would forbid the fitting of live machine guns to a civillian owned aircraft?

ah well will have to use a bbmf one!

is the risk of damage to the airframe that high?

How about “Spirit Of St. Louis” by the excellent UK indie band British Sea Power?

And do you know his name was Lindy
He flew the spirit of St. Louis

Ah!

We’ll raise the spirit of St.Louis
If all of you’d sing Louis, Louis

Come all of ye sing
Come all of ye sing
Come all of ye ah sing Louis, Louis

Ah!

And there’s a little trouble in the starboard wing
And a number of stuka’s are coming in
Are just coming in

Oh Louis, Louis
Hey Louis, Louis

Hey Louis, Louis
Yeah Louis, Louis

Or, controversially, I’m sure theres a reference to a Hawk jet in protest-folk band Sieze The Day’s “With My Hammer”
