> The propeller, even at 500 feet over the maintenance area, made only a light flutter, heard just as it approached. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_YO-3 The largest source of propeller noise is transonic flow at the tips, so turning the propeller slowly helps significantly. The tradeoff is a larger propeller and more expensive engine installation due to the required gearbox. |
