My vote for best loud airplane sound, though, would have to go to the
B-36. Rent the Jimmy Stewart classic, "Strategic Air Command" and
turn up the surround-sound.... Folks who heard them fly over the
Great Plains say that you would hear that drone for hours as that
six-ply contrail slowly crossed from horizon to horizon
I lived about 30 miles from Fairchild AFB and remember them "visiting"
while flying their missions, nearly blotting out the sky.
Those "thumping" props almost made your innards rub together.
