Some of the stuff that goes on in classified areas is pretty fascinating. 'Course, the conspiracy theorist nut-jobs tend to associate everything with aliens, and they certainly never stop to consider that--you know--there's defense-related stuff going on out there. It's important to keep that stuff <b>secret!</b> Ahh well... I agree about aircraft and large machinery, though I tend to be partial to big planes. There's just something about four massive reciprocating motors plowing ahead... Note: Not to disparage against turbine-based engines, of course! It's just that reciprocating engines have a special place in history. Turbo props and turbo fans/jets are both amazing power plants, but you still can't beat the noise of an 18 cylinder radial! That’s hilarious.

1) Large Machinery
