Default Re: Joe Nall and Mufflers??

There are no real noise restrictions at my club and I have never heard a single word and/or complaint about it. I have absolutely no desire to put cans on any of my planes (especially my Carden Cap). They pose absolutely no benefit to me. More money, more weight, more work and potentially degraded performance? No thanks. I, personally, like it LOUD! I love the sound of a ripping prop and nothing is more satisfying than the baritone growl of my 150 shaking my chest while torque rolling over the runway. Give me that any day over the shrill scream of a glow-powered plane or the monotonous whine of a heli. Both of which may register a few less decibels, but are significantly more annoying
