* Jim Cole mentioned to Bill Wunsch ...
 JC> It had the Roll-Royce Spey engine and was a noisy bugger.
They even had noisy starters. If you were standing anywhere within a
half mile of the rear of a BAC 1-11 starting up you'd be excused for
thinking something had flown off as the starter disengaged. Sounded
like a Bendix gear coming loose at a zillion RPM and flying overhead.
Wheeeee.. Duck! ..eeee!
