Ah that's good to hear though the 2800 and the Guardian prop combination do sound good at speed! I hadn't realised Sea Furies had 2800s, thought the re-engined ones all had R3350s and a couple with R4360s but it seems the 2800 is the dominant powerplant now. Edit: just seen a list, most do have 3350s.
I believe a Buchon in Gemany has a quick change Merlin/DB605?
Anyhow, hope the Beaufighter can now be completed fairly quickly and we'll see it flying in the UK.
