@18tangles Ta, I believe this plane ended up too complicated.
-
@18tangles Rolls-Royce Griffon Models 85 or 87 with 2375hp

Such a beautiful plane and along with the Sea Fury the pinnacle of piston powered fighters. I'm not quite sure how a B-29 gunner shot one down during the Korean War - does this look or sound Communist??
-
can anyone tell me what engine did this plane have originally thanks
-
Dear Santa....
-

-

-
Awesome video and sound quality and the flying really shows the aircraft off superbly.

My Grandpa flew Spitfires in WW2 and after the war got to know guys who flew these. He sat in a couple but never flew them. He said it was a better airplane than the Spitfire and that's a big call. Rolls Royce Gryphon V12 - almost identical to the Merlin (some spell it Griffon) . They operated from carriers. Wonderful video. Thanks for posting. Jim is one lucky guy.
