turboplanner Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 I had a look for Wicko's Titan P51 with the Chev 350, seems no one has You Tubed it after all those shows - it gives the Merlin a run for its money for tone.
ausadvance Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 wonder how well a werlin would mount to the drifter?
winsor68 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 wonder how well a werlin would mount to the drifter? I reckon you would have to mount the Drifter to the Merlin.

Mathew Ker Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 A truly evocative sound. Here in Temora we are blessed for the sounds of old aircraft to be overhead on a regular basis. On ANZAC Day we had one of the Spitfires perform a flypast at both our Springdale (9:00am) and Temora (11:00am) services. I've cut and past today's flying programme: May 4th, 2013 Aircraft Showcase - Bomber/Attack: Boomerang, Wirraway, Spitfire, Meteor,Hudson Sitting at my study window, I can see and hear the aircraft perform their routines. More often than not I wander to the front verandah to hear their sounds in all their glory. Mathew
pylon500 Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 Did the P-51's use the same engine? The Rolls Royce Merlin, and Packhard license built Merlins were used in a wide range of aircraft. Just a short list; Spitfire, Hurricane, Defiant, Mosquito, Lancaster, Mustang, (P-15) Lightning, (P-38) KittyHawk, (P-40) And numerous lesser known aircraft... 1
