Great sound and every bit as interesting as the Spitfire as an aircraft from what I can gather from my more knowledgeable offspring.

If they sounded like that for real, I'd buy one.

Struggled to get up to take off speed though.

I used to work with a guy who had a Messerschmitt and a Heinkel bubble-cars as well as all sorts of old bikes. He also had the only surviving model of a motorbike by Field from the early 1900s - single cylinder, leather drive belt, no clutch, hand throttle - we used to ride around the workshop on it.

Did you actually see the video? Take off was out of the question - it didn't even have any wings ffs.

If in the UK it was a Merlin engine.
Props make big difference to the sound.
