Everyone says its quieter than a Cessna, and > sounds like a race car. I also have many comments about the noise of my aircraft (turbo with a homemade "SpinTech"). Many say it is quiet, and most mention that it is "different" and unmistakable. I did have one old-timer that was making comments to others about how obnoxiously loud it was, but if you could see his car and his 2 planes, you wouldn't give him much credibility :-) I'm always happy to see pilots care about the noise they make. > > > The fun is just beginning... > I'm enjoying every moment.
