Thanks Kev,
I remember at least in 1960s miniature pulse jet engines were for sale for model airplanes. I once saw one flying and still remember the noise and speed of the model plane.

Mum can still remember my nan talking about them, they never dropped in Liverpool (?), but family further down south talked to them about these nasties.

Most remember it's distinctive sound, and I've just listened to it..

Thanks Kev.

Hence its nickname the 'buzz bomb' or 'doodlebug'.
