Yes it is ww11 and I think your right about the Hurricanes as Hammered is researching it looking for pics as we
speak :icon_thumleft:

I'm refurbishing one of the hangars and this was taken just outside.

We had a guest in the hangar with us at the start of the job. He broke down on the way to an air show ;D

An engine is just expensive...very, very expensive. But available! The fuselage is much more valuably... if a damage happens there..... :'(
How about the sound when it was fired up??? Music in Your ears, huh?

It was taken about 150 yards from where I was(inside the hangar) and it was deafening :o

Hello, Shaun nice pics and videos. Since you and Hammered are into the war planes I'll go post some for the
two of you. They will be on the Everything Else thread because they are from an email and not photographed
personally.

Looking out my office window it looks very, very similar. Even the weather. But a 70 year old photo would rather show Messerschmitts, a 30 year old photo would show MIGs.
Thanks for the photos and videos.

Boy~o~boy is that sound track music!

I used to work near where there was a couple P-51's hanger'ed near by flown once or twice a weak,
and that was always the highlight of my day!

Those old RR Merlin's always made some beautiful music!

Thanks for the pics and video!!
