A P-47 just flew over

I was in the back yard working on my bird when I heard a soft but very
unusual sound overhead.

Looking up for the sound, there was a silver P-47 at very low power
descending for a pattern entry at Centennial Airport, Colorado. (APA) I
don't know what is going on but that was a very nice airplane sound.

As long as you mean a recip I agree.

Jets are round, they just don't have the character of a round recip.

Dan,
I don't consider kerosene burners real round engines.

Yeah, but the one thing that makes a round engine sound that much sweeter is:

knowing it belongs to someone else. (Learned from years of experience)

Hehe, well, none of them, round, flat or gas producing are worth a darn when
they swarm.

But given the odds for each...plug me in. I'm ready to spool it up. :^)

I step out of the back door of my hanger and am within 50 feet of one,
sometimes 2 P-47's (GKT - Gatlinburg- Pigeon Forge airport -
Sevierville, TN). One flys on a regular basis. Yep, nothing better.
Please come see them at the Tennessee Museum of Aviation
