On this page you will find some sound and video files, which I have recorded at several occations. Some of the files are quite big but
they are worth watching/listening to, because they give good impressions about the 2 main variants of the Spitfire. Several of the sound
files are in stereo. The formats are Quicktime and MP3.

En enkel Merlin (509kb) (which in this
case is fitted to a FIAT G59) looping. This is the same lovely music as it
would have sounded if the engine was fitted to a Spitfire. The short version:
