I suddenly found myself surrounded on 3 sides by all the Spits and
Mustangs
doing their runups at the same time - 19 Merlins revving up, churning the
air with their props, making the ground shake, creating a deafening sweet
racket which I couldn't bring myself to block from my ears. They rang for

8
hours afterward but it was worth every minute.


Thanks for sharing that, Shawn. I've been at OSH numerous times when a
dozen (or more) Mustangs were doing their run-ups, and I still get shivers
just thinking about it!
