Aircraft Sounds, your favorite

[907]

What's your favorite sound from an plane..any plane? Kinda cheesy, but I'm just curious.

Mine= The sound of a 737-400's CFM Turbofans making that howling noise while slightly throttling up for taxiing.

My favorite is the reverse thrusters on both turbojets and turboprops...

 

[retread]

There's nothing like the sound of a radial engine!:nana2:

 

[milleR]

It's either the "whoopf" of adding fuel to a hot pt-6 of the whine of a turbo at full boost.

 

[MikeOH58]

Gulfstream I, Gulfstream II/III without Hush Kits & the F4U Corsair

 

[SpiraMirabilis]

Beta on a turboprop. Chicks dig it too.

Beta on a turboprop. Chicks dig it too.

Ain't that the truth!

 

[Regularjoe]

A P-51 Mustang's Merlin engine purring away, preferably at low altitude and high speed but anytime it's running is sweet.

That is an awesome sound.

 

[mikecweb]

The sound of the two motors in the back spooling down....

Time to go home:nana2:

757!

[MQAAord]

P-51 or a Connie.

Maybe a DC-3...

Agree on the radials, but I LOVE the sound of a Baron. It almost has a radial sort of sound to it. Pretty much any fighter in full afterburner, and any older turbojet spooling up.

 

[c172captain]

The whine of just about any turbine, from a turboprop and the likes preferrably, starting up.

 

[AngelFuree]

757!

I love that plane.

 

[ATC RET 2003]

I like the sound when the flight attendant says, "Coach is full... would you like to sit in first class?"

To seriously answer the question... the sound of a B1 doing a flyby followed by max climb.

 

[germb747]

It's hard to pick one, but if I have to then I'll say the L-1011

 

[DPApilot]

757!

[yt]zyjydxd3Cdg[/yt]

climbout on a 75 is the best!

 

[Bumblebee]

My favorite sound (largely from a safety perspective) is when the gear locks down, and then when the props go into reverse.:sitaware:

From a purely asthetic perspective, there is a secondary whine that happens as we pass 80 knots on takeoff that I think sounds particularly cool.:rawk:
