Boy she was loud on a still night and we have been waiting to get this type of photo for a while.

She was certainly loud I live about 100 mtrs across the road and she drowned out the TV the wife said what the hell is that and I said sound very much like the Bristol freighter to me opened the door and sure enough it was those big radials winding up a sound so familiar back in the 70s

A superb shot Gavin , that sound was so common .. and a site i took for granted .. now just lucky to have a dedicated bunch looking after the last running and someone so close to its home to photo it .

Here are a few shots from the engine start on Sunday.

Considering the old girl has had a break for two or three months she started really easily.
