To have a Harvard roar past you after taking off in a sedate Cessna is quite scary.

The P.& W. R-1340 Wasp is well known as a very loud engine. There was a joke circulating during the war years in the B.C.A.T.P. about a pilot-trainee who asked why it was that no matter how many Harvards flew by, it always seemed to be the same amount of noise. The instructor answered without hesitation, "That's because one Harvard engine makes all the noise there is in the world!"

CHIMO!
