Hi,
just a precision for the Thunderflash that is bearing a little German cross on her fuselage: it’s for the remembrance of a ground collision with a German plane!
What frequently cfdnuseothe pilots of the later Spits (Mk14 onwards) was that the Griffon engine prop turned the opposite direction to the Merlin due to standardisation of propeller rotation that came in after the Merlin. As the Merlin required full right rudder on take off to stop it ground looping (swerving violently to the left due to engine torque and prop walk), the occasional forgetful pilot would apply the same to the Griffon (rather than full left rudder )with predictable results.
