The Merlin is the best sounding engine of all time.

My office used to be under the final approach path for runway 15 at
SBA. One day I heard the unmistakable sound of a Merlin pass overhead.
But wait - that sounded like two merlins! What could that be - a
Mosquito?. I had to go look. Sure enough, it was a pair of Merlins -
on a Spanish-built JU-88. How's that for a rare bird? I read somehere
that it had been Franco's personal plane - and also that it later
crashed.

Are you sure that it wasn't a Heinkel? IIRC, the Spanish didn't have
JU-88s.
