Roger Young did this set-up in the early '90's. You can see (and hear) his VT-240 powered C-47 in the early Top Gun tapes. It was beautiful, but unfortunately Roger died right after the 3rd (I think) Top Gun and we never saw that C-47 again. The sound sent a thrill up my leg and I vowed to have one someday. I don't think he had counter-rotating props.
