Not sure why I didn’t mention it in the OP, but it is of course the sound that adds so much to the spectacle. Indeed, it was the sound that alerted me to the presence of the plane in the first place and had me scurrying into the garden to try to spot it before it left.

Bloody magnificent thing of utter, complete beauty.

The only better thing is to actually be up there in it. Man it's an experience I'll never forget. Funnily enough the Merlin engine sounds quite different when sitting inside and flying around.

V12 Rolls Royce engines have that lovely throaty noise I agree, there is only one noise better, 2 x V12 Rolls Royce engines in a car roaring over the salt in Utah.

73 litres of power!
