The whistle on that mk9 spit is hard to hear i like the sound of the 100t to much.Reminds me of an elderly club member who had a whistle stuck with velcro to an undercarriage leg on saito powered high wing tailwheel trainer.Said he was tone deaf in the lower sound register(standing next to to many harleys?)so had a hard time hearing his saito in flight and that's why he put the whistle on it.Every flight looked like a test flight and unexpected low dives over the strip made that whistle scream.When he was'nt looking in the pits i used to stick a small bit of chewing gum on the front to quieten it down but he sprung me so then i unstuck the whistle and changed the angle of attack slightly but he cottoned on to that too.Hav'nt seen the old coot for years,club lore has it that a few member got together and killed him.
