Lord Moonpie I got to hear it when our squadron converted from Lanc's to Neptunes the CO at the time felt it would be a good thing to have a flypast of Lancasters leaving the squadron, so every one in the squadron turned out wives and other ranks were there to, we got them off they formed up and came across the field at a thousand feet all ten and appropriately enough it was over cast with a little scotch mist in the air, the sound was incredible I wish I had pictures of the event, or a sound recording but alas. There are some times that loud noise is beautiful.

That would have been something Bill for sure. We used to get them now and again over our house when they took the old planes out for a run from Scampton, Waddington and Swinderby in Lincolnshire. I grew up really close to Bonbrook where they filmed Memphis Belle. Some great memories of some truly great planes.

If you do go there though, please sit at least 25 feet from your computer screen and don't listen to these for more than 8 hours at a time  8)

I think the most obnoxious and annoying sound is, high pitch whining.

I look forward to the thread you start where you are voicing (not whinging) your displeasure with the new noise ordinance in your area that bans aftermarket pipes.

Same thing in 2 different threads, it really takes no intelligence or rational thought process at all to come up with a childish comment like that, well done..... ::)

Or hit the unnotify or whatever it says at the top of the page.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.
