"and the snozberries taste like snozberries."

"baby-***** green"

'genuflect'

at least it's evocative to me... also my favorite word


+1 for the spits

I think spitfire is the most beautiful airplane ever constructed, check out the sounds of these merlin engines.

Not only is the merlin a great sounding engine, it also looks great.

I never realized how loved these engines were until I stumbled upon some land speed racing sites. People have squeezed 4000hp from this ~60 year old design!

Here's a 2500 hp one used in a Bonneville LSR car... yours for 50k:

JYL- this photo is on regualr roataion as my desktop background. I just noticed- same aircraft in your shot.

stu, do you have a high rez version of that pic?

The file Ive got is only 75kb- excuse my ignorance in these matters- but I think that means its low res? Welcome to it you want it.

Is this thread about evocative words or pretty pictures of aircraft - i'm confused.

Either way:

(Short of course for "Sturtz Kampf Flugzeug" - but you knew that, you drive a derivative of the KDF wagen.)

gentlemen, start your engines.

again

Certainly evocative.
