I don't think we have been "duped" on having quiet planes. There was a time in my life that hearing screaming engines was a joy , however , I now much more prefer the lower volume of our planes . To me , the tone of a muffled four stroke at full throttle is the sweetest sound in our hobby . <BR>

I agree that nobody else cares whether or not I can hear my plane . On the other hand , should noise become an issue with the nieghbors around our field , everyone would care whether or not I could hear my plane.<BR>
