You, as a pilot, are in a bad place to observe prop noise, since 98% of
the
extra noise comes off the prop, at high RPM, only in the plane of the
prop,
or another way of saying it, is, right off the ends of the tips.

But you already knew that, didn't you? g

Actually, no. But whatever the level to others, it is probably
proportional to
the level I get, no? So I can still make the judgement call.

Actually, no. You just don't get the "blat" from the tips when you are
sitting behind them.
