Working Merlin engine in 1/5 scale

Monday, March 23, 2009   |   posted by Spitfire Site Editor   |   permalink

A mind-boggling modelling undertaking - a working Merlin XX in 1/5 scale built by British modeller Barry Hares of the Aircraft Engine Historical Society. This video shows a test bench run of the completed engine. Additional photos of the model, including its various beautifully machined components, are available here at the AEHS site [Barry Hares]
