1. Is there such a thing as a quiet single engine plane? Quiet enough to
not
need hearing protection? More quiet than other models, relatively
speaking?

Pressurized cabins are notably quieter. In my P210 there is no need for my
wife and kids to wear headphones to talk to each other in the back seats,
even in non-pressurized mode.
