I know RPM is HP, but man, how about turning the RPM back just a few hundred. They are painful to listen to, even verging on nauseating! (IMHO) Funny -- I LOVE the way those T-6s roar past! They've got 'em set up specifically to make lots of noise and smoke -- in the finest airshow tradition... Roar = good. Screech of prop tips = painful! Never heard prop tips screech. The T-6 gives you two sonic booms for every revolution. OTOH so does a Bonanza with a 2-blade prop.
