Brrm brrm!

The plane fans on my f'list might enjoy this one too - a German chap has built a V12 model aircraft engine. And a lovely noise it makes too. Youtube video on the page. Sounds like a bonsai Spitfire!

V12 model aircraft engine

I can't get enough of the sound of the thing. You'll either understand this, or think me strange. I don't care! ;-)

That I certainly ought to be able to do, assuming ours is there. (It's not based at Duxford.) And yes, it is a Hurricane I get to look after.

I hadn't actually thought of that!

The ones I had thought of were getting you in cheap, flying you there and getting you a ride in a Spitfire. The first is certainly doable, the second possibly, and you'll have to wait (behind me, natch) in a very very long line for the third :)

Coo, thanks! There is a slight hitch with the Hurricane-viewing, though, which is that I think my dad would never forgive me if I saw it without him... ;-)
(I bought him the Haynes Manual for the Spitfire for xmas - that went down well...)
