Harry...Im an aircraft techo and its true in regards to ground testing as well. I saw the only working Spitfire in Aus owned and flown by Col Payne which has a Merlin taxiing for take off at the 1988 RAAF airshow in Richmond. He gave it too much throttle and it torqued the wing and prop into the ground. Also, on take off, if you didnt give it heaps of rudder when the wheels left the ground, the torque would twist you into the ground. Alot of pilots in WW2 were caught out by this...not Australian ones of course.
