Hi Mike,

The newer jets, which are powered by turbofans, don't have much of a noise 
footprint.  If the Beavers are still powered by the big radials, they ARE 
noisy.  Some are being converted to turboprops.

The loudest ones I hear are the old Lears that are now hauling freight.  The 
early engines do make a roar as they climb like a homesick angel.
