That model is just about a flight simulation in its own right. Amazing model, quite complex and can take a while to learn all the procedures required for correct operation. But the sight of the thing in the air and the sound of those engines is worth it. Bruce

I haven't flown this in awhile . . .
It is very well done - it's the sounds that make it, plus the counter-rotating props!

…it’s great being a kid again – without the glue! ;D

I guess the Tu-114 would have been as loud as the Tu-95 Bear, but had additional soudproofing in the cabin? The Bear was so loud that intercepting fighters could hear them over their own jet engines; and they left their crews with permanent hearing damage. In which case, hook it up to your 1,000 Watt stereo, and crank it up! It is also one of the favorites in my hanger.
