Cool video! :good:

 

I have no idea what the different jets were by sound.

I could definately tell the round engines,but not the aircraft.

The V-12 Rolls and Allisons were unmistakeable.

I literally live right under the glide path to a small airport, and I often get to see (and hear) old warbirds coming in to land, so I'm quite familiar with the sound of radials versus inlines. I recall talking with Dave on the phone , once, while out on my back deck. I heard the unmistakable sound of a big inline engine, and looked up in time to see a Mustang making its approach. I asked Dave if he recognized the sound, and he answered "I can't tell you what the aircraft is, but the engine sounds like a Merlin" :biggrin:
