["True sidenote story: On occasion, I used to play a recording of a P-51 racing at Reno at full volume on my old Fisher stereo to wake up my kids. They hated it! :P"]

Haha! I used Ride of the Valkyries by Wagner! I'd get home in the morning after a night shift, just in time to wake the family up for their day. I'd crank it all the way up, too. Most of our neighbors moved away.

["It is the fastest piston-driven prop engine in history"]. I might wrong about that. I seem to recall recently reading that a single WWII piston driven fighter plane was modified to be the very fastest prop-plane in world history, and assigned to hunt the new jets over Germany. Does anyone remember what it was? There was only a single model of it ever produced.

I'll have to research that. The Mustang was the fastest factory flier, but this other one (possibly a Thunderbolt?) was beefed up as a jet interceptor. Ahl be Bach.
