I love the raggedy sound of those engines. Lots of starting and taxiing, but no flying. Enjoy the ear candy Here

Lots of hours running those engines.

Temperamental, especially in the winter. Fires are common.

The best sounding one of all is the R4360. 28 cylinders, four rows. They did have a habit of catching fire, though.
