Ex-Flight Modeler working up in Canada...
So one of the ex-flight modelers, who I became very good friends with, basically used his experience making WT FM's to develop real world tools for performance recording for planes.
And the guys up at Vintage Wings Canada, took notice. So they flew him up to work for a few weeks.
He took this video of the Spitfire Mark 16 that was recently restored, starting up, and taking off. Watch at full volume, if you dare...

One of his biggest complaints about WT isn't the flight models, but the fact that even from 50 yards, the sound the Spitfire is giving off is terrifying. Imagine actually sitting in the cockpit with an 1800 HP engine 2 feet in front of you.
I'll see if I can get him to do an album so we can see all the pictures.
