As the one on the headset for that engine run , may I thank you for your noble efforts with the film as was said Its a bit of a thrill even to old people like myself who maintained them in anger during their hayday in the 60s and 70s with B.E.A. to get at least 2 of them running though looking at no3 we were a bit over the top with the engine oil when filling it with all that smoke but never mind they ran and all the bits worked , and we are glad everyone enjoyed it .
by the bye is there anyone in PPruneland know of anyone with 1 or2 electric starter motors for a Tyne propping open the garage doors the reason 1and 2 arn't running is the lack of said motors the originals are beyond repair and overhaul. and of course WE have no spares.
thanks once again
