Re: questions about a damaged Merlin engine trailing white smoke

Thanks guys,

so, if I understand it right, white smoke would probably have been thicker if the plane was damaged in its engine, with coolant leaking on the very warm engine, than if hit in the radiator (lighter smoke/steam pouring out then)?
