Merlin’s magic: I won at life when I flew a Spitfire – and you can, too
A cough. A splutter. A jet of flame for good measure and the Merlin is prised from its slumbers and into rambunctious life. Many of you, perhaps even most, will have heard one of these engines, at Goodwood or an airshow. But unless you’re physically strapped into an aircraft boasting one, you can never claim… Continue reading Merlin’s magic: I won at life when I flew a Spitfire – and you can, too
