Wow - these would be really cool to watch like this. Hearing protection? Those aren't quiet birds.
Hmm, hearing protection.... Don't tell my wife about that!
Seriously, the jet class not pictured yet would be the issue.
Prop planes are loud but the distance makes it manageable.
There's nothing like the sound of a Merlin V12 at full chat.
