But no, i havnet fired 20mm cannons from my plane ( wich i voted to be on), flew 109 with a spitfire firing behind me, had a 109 zooming pass me, nor AAA shoot at me. to young for that i guess.

jsut remenberes 2 other situations where i could hear 0. whilst taxing i had an helciopter fly over, 10 meters ahead, 10 over me, i was idle at this point as a tower command, and while taxing i had an antoher aircraift take off on opposite direction maybe 40 meters way or so, in this case i was 1000 rpm - 1/4 thorttle or so, and he was obviosly full power.
