Had I won that £170m lottery sum last week I'd be giving them a call... Absolutely love a Griffon Spit and a low back XIV/XVIII best of all.

It's a long time since I last heard the expression "double star" to describe a two-row radial.

East German (VEB) licence-built version of the venerable and once ubiquitous Shvetsov engine.

Great flying.
