noise it made it was fantastic, espeacially when it homing on 9.5k redline it to a scream (think 787B).
787B is a bit meaningless,if it was in db(a) that level would fry your (and everyone elses) ears. The threshold of pain is about 120 and an increase of 10db increases the power by 10 so 667 increase would be 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times more powerful

Now that would be loud
