@FrigidFTSup makes engine noises if it gets too quiet.

My wife gets mad because every time I hear a plane I look up to see what kind it is

I am not a pilot but after 8 years in the Air Force I do the same thing.

First ride on an Airbus coming back from Vegas. Was bit concerned about the continuous loud whooping noise it was making while taxiing . Did not sound normal.

It's the hydraulic systems. When you're taxiing it is usually on one engine, in the case of the airbus one engine doesn't provide enough power to pressurize the primary and backup systems, but too much too pressurize the single one, so it bleeds into the secondary.

Worst noise that gets people on any plane from my experience is on the CRJ-200 when the gear kicks out. It sounds like a hole got punched in the fuselage and air is rushing out.

Have you told her there is no Santa Claus yet?

I wish.

We agreed not to ruin it for the grandparents

But if the day comes and she asks I'm not gonna lie to her.

There is nothing wrong with kids believing in Santa or the Easter Bunny and certainly no need to burst their bubble-----their classmates will be more than happy to do that for you.

My realtor is a very nice lady but its almost as if I need to take time off to deal with this as she has been blowing up my cell phone.

Yeah but the nose is also where you’re breaking through the air. Also can depend on the systems. The 737 is notoriously loud because the HVAC ducting runs over the cockpit.

Yea, I was wondering if most of the noise is air or engine? Airplanes are far from quiet. Funny, on TV and the movies you never hear noise.

In the movie Airplane they used prop engine noises to mess with people.

While you are watching airplanes fly by keep an eye out for falling Chinese space stations.
