The whistle is quite loud/distinctive on N3200, as heard in this video from a recent display at Old Warden (its solo display starts after 7:10): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_GdIp2fQbI


In an article in the July issue of Flypast on N3200, it is said that the more prominent whistle it produces could be because the ammo chutes didn't have a spoiler fitted to them, or it could be the design of the mirror.

Whatever it is, it is very distinctive, and makes her identifiable in the air amongst the other MKIs.

Some nice pictures Peter, and fantastic to see four MKIs in the air together.

Cheers

Thank you for the information, Paul. I've noticed that P9374 can also have a noticable whistle at times, but to a much lesser degree and not as often.
