About the only acro act I really enjoy are the Red Barons, who
probably do qualify as the above.

I can't stand the Reds, because of the G*d awful noise! I think because of
the physiology of pressure waves on the body, I become nearly nauseated. If
they would sacrifice a little bit of power, by going to a shorter prop, or
one with more blades, or slow the RPM's a bit, I would indeed enjoy them.
As is, if able to (not working), I go in a building, or back to camp, to
escape the noise.

I like noise and airplanes. I like B-1 full afterburner passes. I like the
Harrier hovering. I like a B-17 taking off, and P-51's, and ....

There is something about the slow beating of big props (some of them) that I
just can't stand.

Any act that substitutes
excessive aircraft power for pilot skill will bore me quickly...

Shaun Tucker bores you? He has extreme power, but the stuff he does can not
be done by airplanes. Somehow he does them. :-)
