Hawker Hunter FGA.9 G-ETPS

I’ve posted a recording of a Hawker Hunter on my new website.

It is available from http://www.field-recording.org.uk/hawker-hunter-fga-9-g-etps/

Gloster Gladiator engine run down

Standing in front of a massive radial engine as it revs up to shut down is quite a noise. This is a snippet of what it sounds like.

The recording and the image are of the same aircraft. This aircraft is powered by a single 840 hp (627 kW) Bristol Mercury IX air-cooled radial piston engine.
