Kenmore Air runs a fleet of DeHaviland Beavers float planes form the North end of Lake Washington all over Puget. When they take off to the South, they turn North over my house. I get treated to the rumble of radials all day long.
Best was on the 50th Anniversary of the B-17, all the flyable ones in the US were at Boeing field, the factory building is still there. The flew in formation right over my house!
