    he Airplane Thread

    ...because I feel that this topic needs its own thread, instead of cluttering up that other forum thread.

    For those who love the sound of a Rolls-Royce Merlin, imagine having *four* of them on a single plane like the Avro Lancaster. Fortunately for us, the Bomber Command Museum of Canada has a non-airworthy Lancaster in their collection that they occasionally run up. Rumor has it that even a short demo costs them over 800 Loonies in AVgas.

    Here's the audio of a three-engine run up on YouTube (fourth engine's prop was out for service). Grab your headphones and enjoy the Merin music.....

    I've used https://jetalto.com/ to get instant private jet quotes for my own trips. It's a handy service for aviation enthusiasts who want to experience flying in style. No hidden fees, great network of operators, and you can compare options easily. Definitely worth a look if you're planning a trip.
