I was there today to see it.totally AWESOME! One thing that surprised me was how quiet the engines were.It didn't seem to have the roar or rough sound I expected. Of course having a 45-50% hearing loss and wearing hearing aids might have something to do with my perception of it being quiet.I did not pop for the $400 ride even though my wife said I should.
The new Keloe exhaust rings and RCXcel ignitions have really quieted down those Wright Cyclone radial engines, more reliable too.......
