Looking forward to that Garry! My favorite four-propliner.

I'm waiting for the day when Avion video find some film of the Brit where you can HEAR them takeoff/land. I've always wondered what they sound like :think:

I know there's footage of XM496's spectacular arrival/landing at Kemble, as I've seen it when I was on board at one of the airshows, but could barely hear it....Should've asked for a copy! :brick:

Its a wonderful sound mate -- I grew up around Britannia Airways 100s and went on to ride in the back of IAS's 300s - the problem is finding a decent
video or tape of the sound - Ive heard the Princess flyboating videos and they sound NOTHING like the Brit -- neither do any Tynes - it had a sound all
of its own smooth and powerful - and yes Im biased
