Those old Curtiss OX-5 engines have the noisiest push/pull valvetrain don’t they? It was so good to hear those when I flew her and quite surprising they managed to get that essence. The only thing they didn’t add was the oil splashing back in your face, clothes and windscreen ![]()
My south to north cathedral trip up the east coast of England with some very loose information:
Ely Cathedral built between 1083 - 1109
Lincoln Cathedral - 1072-1092 and Lincoln Castle
York Minster 1220 - 1472 but a religious site from 627,
Finally, Durham Cathedral - site of an abbey from 995 became a cathedral 1093 - 1133.
The dates are very basic information, it’s obviously not quite that simple. The rendition of the buildings is quite good with the notable exception of Ely which is missing its famed octagonal central tower!
Good fun and some VFR navigation tests.
