Who Likes Aircraft ?

Doesn't sound like electric to me.

It shows how much noise actually comes from the prop and not the power plant doesn't it?

I wonder why the swastika is painted straight, like the Finnish airforce instead of angled like the Germans used?
Finnish Airforce symbol:

German swastika:

By the way, Finland was using the symbol in 1918, it has nothing to do with the Nazi party in their case.

IIRC the Chinese and others used the Swastika centuries ago but it was reversed.
It symbolized good luck. It was also used in many religions as a symbol of divinity and spirituality. Next time you are in a Chinese (can I say that) restaurant look at the decorations. You will see them.
I think I read somewhere the Germans angled the Swastika to symbolize it rolling, as in rolling over their enemies.
It has been used all throughout Europe and Asia through the centuries.
