If you click here and turn up the volume, you should hear one of the most charismatic and rare fighters built during the war, the Australian designed and built Boomerang.

Please let me know whether you can hear it OK.



This is what they look like.



Thanks Kieth, I love "round sounds!" Actually, I just plain love the sound of aero engines period! There's something about Warbird aero engines that makes one look up into the air to see what's flying by.
One year at the Abbotsford International Air Show we were blessed by having a Spit, a Hurricane, and a Lancaster do a fly-by. It was extremely moving listening to the howl of 6 Merlin engines. I happened to glance to my right and there was a little old lady with a great big grin and tears flowing down her cheeks. I smiled at her and she responded by telling me that she used to build Hurricanes during the war and it moved her immensely to see one still flying.




CHIMO!
