Hi mjbrown: aaahh... Your right on. And ya might be tempted to say those with prop in back are maybe similar to a "dozer" in that both "push" their way around. So, we're talking tractor talk. My favorite sound was, and still is, the V-12 engines. Allis here and Rolls Royce in England. The best ride I've ever had was in a P-51 and I was taken on 5 simulated combat strafing runs at machine gun placements on a high overhead rail road bridge. The V-12 was very smooth and the P-51 was quick and both roll and pitch. I've had 5 Corvettes and 3 had 435HP and none would keep up on takeoff from 60mph to 130+mph. Of course we didn't have a combat load. Pointed straight down at 250 was unreal how fast the earth came up at us. I found out I greyed out at 4 and half G's. Sound stops before sight when pulling G's. For me anyway.. I doubt I'll ever get another ride like that. After pullout at just below tree top level, We were at 300mph and that was very interesting. I could not focus on anything closer then maybe 300 feet ahead. The closer stuff was going by so fast the human eye is not quick enough when that low and fast. One looks farther ahead anyway for doing the flying. Made my 100mph spray speed look mild. Best ride of my life. .ag
