Stephen, tuning shrouded exhaust for more speed - a lot of innovation came out of war efforts.

Here is a video that was recently sent to me. Great story, a little long, but well worth watching. I hope the link works for all who want to see it.

JW,

Thanks for posting. Became good friends with a RCAF Spitfire pilot thru the airshow years ago. He had stories to tell about flying the Spitfire. One thing always stuck in my mind was his critiquing of Spitfire pilots while announcing the air show, especially if they dipped after takeoff looking for retracting landing gear handle. He was killed by a clown running a traffic light.
