Well said 100% agree. Sort of like a wooden roller coaster vs a modern steel rail coaster. The steel may be faster, but I'll take the wooden one any day - the feel is entirely Different
@@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040 Um...that's probably £2.2M *each*. As a guideline, the Mark XIV in New Zealand is valued at NZ$4M, which, at this moment, translates to £2M.
My heart wants to leap out of my chest, I cannot breath....and I shed a small tear for the brave lads that flew these beasts....That is the Brit in me.
I really like the procedural discipline shown by both the pilot and ground crew. Flying such a unique and beautiful warbird is a tremendous responsibility.
actually twin turbochargers .. one feeding the other with highley compressed air hence the need tor the second radiator on the port wing " compessed air is hot" ..not good for the engine! hence radiators..
That whistle makes the hair stand up on my neck and back - a child of the 60s who's still proud to be a TRUE BRIT and proud of what our forefathers achieved!!!!!!! God love 'em!!!!!!!!
Twenty odd years ago I was working at Lakenheath air base and rapidly got use to f15 and 16's pulling off the most amazing stunts above my head, usually with bits falling off them. Those boys could bring those things to a virtual halt in the air slewing them around just holding them up with the sheer power of those mighty jets. Impressive yes but not a patch on a spit that flew over my head one day as I walked my dogs. At about one hundred feet this old plane hammered past me flat out in the direction of Shipdham air field one of those wonderful sights you never forget.
Amazing and incredible to see any WW2 aircraft flying these days considering maintenance,insurances,fuel let alone all the bureaucracy. Rob Davis lucky dog I mean chap.😉👍👍
The sooner the UK moves on from spitfires and Dunkirk etc the better. Nobody else cares. Stop looking back and look to the future. This stuff is history
I grew up in Sawston,a once was smallish Village on the outskirts of Duxford before it became the IWM,learnt to drive on the Runway in a Hand built Motorised Go-Cart and then a Car,played in the Hangers and went Shell digging in the Firing Pits. Grew up listening to the Merlins overhead and every Engine sound of every Aircraft they have there,witnessed Concorde landing never to take off again as soon as she landed they started building the M11. Used to watch the Airshows for Free for a good few years ( As well as Mildenhall and Lakenheath ) sitting on the roof of whatever car we had at the time. Listened to my Father forever Moan about his Generator that got blown up when the Film " Battle of Britain " was made at Duxford and they blew up one of the Hangers ( with a lot too much explosive ) . I also witnessed the Building of the American War Cemetery in Madingley just outside Cambridge ( A very somber place even to a small child ). I was extremely privileged to grow up where I did,knowing the sacrifices that were made by Americans,Polish,Canadian and English Service Personnel and Male and Female not just at Duxford but all the surrounding Airfields ( There were so many ).
For the RAF identity on the wings the white band was not used as it was easily spotted by the enemy and also would reflect in the sunlight. Only the red and blue bands were insigned.
He's flying it a lot slower than they did in combat, all preserved aircraft do that. This and various other measures like the pre-oiler means they get twice the engine life between overhauls compared to WWII use.
A Mark XIV is based at Omaka and comes out to play at the Classic Fighters Omaka air shows every two years and I'm here to watch and listen. Man, that Griffon! I can't get enough of this.
Lovely to see it side by side with the ME109 they had a great sound as well, I can remember Black 6 flying at Duxford before it was stuck in a shed Never to be heard again,
If your desire is to fly in the finest aeroplane that ever existed, and my desire is exactly that, then....there can never be another. The Supermarine Spitfire.
If you ever get the chance to see one of these engines fired up on it's own do it. I watched one that was fitted to a trailer at the Heddington and Stockley fair. It had a chopped down prop and a nutty bloke sitting on a stool behind it. To start with there were old couples,young couples,children,pet dogs and assorted fair type animals, horse,pigs,sheep etc. Within 10 seconds of putting the revs up to half it was only the dads and teenagers left,everyone else had either ran away or were hiding in tents,dogs were dragging owners away and a horse escaped its stable. I just stood there in total awe as my intestines vibrated with such force I thought I was having an issue but with a cheshire smile. Nothing is as violent or as aggressive a noise than that from a Griffin V12, apart from 20 taking of at the same time or whole flights of Lancaster's.
My Uncle (god bless him) was converting to Mk18's from Mk9's, training to intercept buzz bombs when the war ended. He always said they had so much power compared to the 9's that you could pull up into a loop from cruise and gain altitude coming out. Fabulous airplane.
I found this video a year late. Crikey, the noise, the noise! On the ground, the Spit looks a bit like a swan with outspread wings. In the air, it looks like it's saying "Don't mess with me, you'll lose." And it was right. Love it, thank you.
The griffon has such a distinctive sound!! Love that little stutter that it does!! Its kinda like hearing a drag car with a hopped up cam... love love love the Griffon!!!
That my friends is one of the sounds of freedom....thank you to the pilots, ground crews and all who gave the ultimate sacrifice and gave their yesterday's for our tomorrow
Most beautiful looking, most beautiful sounding and most beautiful to fly according to many pilot accounts I have read and heard of. Spitfire will always be iconic and symbolic of times gone by for many reasons. Thank you Supermarine and Reginald Mitchell.
As soon as lockdown is over I am off on pilgrimage around England to as many aircraft,tank,train, motorcycle and engineering musuems and soak up what we had and were world beaters in,
I have a caravan in West Wittering, where a Spitfire flying overhead is an almost daily event ( out of Goodwood/ RAF Westhampnet) I feel truly blessed.
The sound of Shakespeare properly delivered, the Fender Rhodes, a perfectly cooked steak, and the Merlin engine touch some pleasure center deep in my brain that nothing else can.
I sat in the gardens of chatsworth house and heard that unmistakable sound of the four Merlin’s of a Lancaster bomber as it came over the hill into view 😍❤️
Absolutely fantastic video! A great combination of closeup and far away shots, and seeing that shape gracing the sky just brings me goosebumps. Thank you for the video!
Eh, when it started the props were pulling it forward onto the chocks and the entire plane pivoted on the axles of the wheels bringing the tail up and nose down, most engine start videos with a chocked plane you get the same effect.

AGREE... that bloody awful background music WHY do they do that??? Like 'canned' laughter, too!
not even anoyying music , give this genius an oscar
and no screaming children
The sound of the engine in passing never fails to send a shiver down my spine .
The Scream of the Supercharger- Fantastic!
The sound of a spitfire engine sends a tingling wave over my entire body. head to toe and back up again.
some things cant be explained with words.
that's for sure Victor
They were going to call the Spitfire Mk 21 Victor since it had a new wing but stayed with Spitfire.
@Will Harris yes
Me too, and I can't explain why.
This is not the normal sound of a Spitfire. It’s a Griffon engine. It’s the Merlin that makes the distinctive Spitfire sound.
Absolutely one of Mankind's finest creations!!! Thank You Mr. Mitchell!!!
And Mr Jones. . . .
Even when we have way more powerful engines and advanced technologies, nothing screams power to your brain like a piston engine...
And a 5 blade prop
@HiWetcam Duh, but wheres the fun in that?
Much of the noise is from the propeller ... the airphloggenphan.
@Alba Gu Bràth I beg to differ... Avro Vulcan
Agreed! Nothing gets the pulse racing faster!
It's a shame that R J Mitchell never lived to see this apotheosis of his design.

@@JamesSmith-lz1xu The Griffon engine does not have turbochargers, it has a two-stage engine-driven, geared mechanical supercharger.

@@leadhead582 Fair enough.

I can't imagine what feelings did Rob have while flying it. It must be great honour and pleasure for anyone who lifts it again up to the sky...

actually griffons flew a lot also in the earliest stages of the cold war, for example the griffon f mk.24 served all the way up into the 60s!

No annoying announcers, or music, just a buzzin dozen griffon cylinders sounding off with a hint of supercharger whine, GLORIOUS!
For the RAF identity on the wings the white band was not used as it was easily spotted by the enemy and also would reflect in the sunlight.
Only the red and blue bands were insigned.
@HiWetcam hahaha
One of the most beautiful birds to ever grace the skies. Thanks.
This is why gunners in WWII were taught to shoot skeet. A low leve aircraft at these speeds is ridiculously easy to hit
He's flying it a lot slower than they did in combat, all preserved aircraft do that. This and various other measures like the pre-oiler means they get twice the engine life between overhauls compared to WWII use.
All engine, no tanoy, no screaming kids over the mic... absolutely pure simple bliss...
oh my goodnes what a sound it is opera to the ears so deap and throaty thank heaps
Oh my God. I'm listening to this through headphones and I'm getting goosebumps. Absolutely marvellous
I’m lucky to have 1 or 2 spits fly over my house every day for 9 months of the year , you always recognise the sound
A Mark XIV is based at Omaka and comes out to play at the Classic Fighters Omaka air shows every two years and I'm here to watch and listen. Man, that Griffon!
I can't get enough of this.
That is a beast ! Very different to the early Merlin engined machines but just as beautiful.
Hanne Catton the first time I stood next to a Griffon all I could think was Jesus that’s bloody enormous!!
@@georgeorwell100 they had to lengthen the nose to get it in by about a foot
Lovely to see it side by side with the ME109 they had a great sound as well,
I can remember Black 6 flying at Duxford before it was stuck in a shed
Never to be heard again,
Ooh how I love the sound of a super charger coupled up to a thicc engine
Bless you for keeping these birds Alive.
If your desire is to fly in the finest aeroplane that ever existed, and my desire is exactly that, then....there can never be another. The Supermarine Spitfire.
There's something really cool to me that the Griffon is a racing engine that's used in a fighter plane. Like a police car with a race motor.
why do you call a Spitfire a police car? That's one lousy analogy!!!
If you ever get the chance to see one of these engines fired up on it's own do it.

Nothing is as violent or as aggressive a noise than that from a Griffin V12, apart from 20 taking of at the same time or whole flights of Lancaster's.
The Griffon has a more aggressive tone compared to the Merlin, prefer the latter, but both prove evocative.
Barry Sheridan its the stutter that gives it away!! Love it!!
agree
Love the later Spits. Griffons have little bit of whistle as the pass. Great stuff!
That's because the Merlin & the Griffon have very different firing orders.
Also different direction off crankshaft rotation.
A pass from this plane should be the test for a finely tuned THX system.
Much better than the crappy The Audience are Listening noise.
❤ that, great idea
Absolutely stunning! That engine sound sends shivers down my spine! Thank for a wonderful video.

Merlín or Griffon. Who cares, they both sound amazing. I get goosebumps at every pass when I see a Spitfire flying
Amazing 40:years earlier we could barely get off the ground
Its really amazing considering these were flying about 75 years ago.
And now we've got millions of icbms to do the job. There's nothing like Progress.

Without detracting from the hallowed Spit, I think the prize goes to the TSR-2
I'd say mosquito
Hard to argue with Mosquito, too. All are rather different planes for different purposes. I think the Spit has the most glory, though.
