One of these days, we'll hopefully be able to hear the difference between 601, 605 and 213 for ourselves -hopefully. I for sure will go anywhere in the world to experience it for real. And the sight, imagine the sight of them in the air!!!

But what about the DB 603, can we get one of these into the air as well??? There were Fw 190D's too with that engine, wasn't it? And we would need to get a Ju 87 in the air to hear the Jumo 211...
