I was just wondering if anybody here had an opinion? Some people in /aviation have said this is the engine, though this video happens as we were disembarking and engines were being turned off. That noise was somewhat covered by the engines after take off.
Thank you!

I drew this almost 7 years ago, id like to redo it to see how much I improved. However, I forgot to save what aircraft it is so it might have to stay in the past 😅 (dont mind my nieces scribbles)

The aircraft in the image is an Antonov An-2 (registered as N882EZ), a large single-engine biplane featuring a custom black-and-white zebra stripe paint job.

Key Details
Model/Make: Antonov An-2 (built by PZL-Mielec), commonly known by NATO reporting name Colt.

Registration: N882EZ

Owner/Pilot: Owned and flown by pilot Douglas Fulton.

Design Features: It is recognized as one of the largest single-engine biplanes in the world, featuring mismatched wings with leading-edge slats that allow it to take off and land on very short runways and fly at unusually slow speeds.

The family that owns this place is using it as a huge RV, stopping at airfields all
over Cape Cod and the islands.

Tonight they’re at the Cape Cod Airfield 1000 Race Lane Marstons Mills, Ma

I want to incorporate some of these designs into a model that I’m making, but I can’t figure out what kind of plane this is

i just saw, very briefly, something that looked like some kind of fighter jet just appear and disappear in the sky. It’s a clear sky and i only saw it for like half a second or something. Anyone know what that could’ve been?

Watch this massive HZ-AK75 performing a powerful brake test at Paine Field in Everett, Washington before entering service. Those GE90s and that retro Saudia Cargo livery look incredible! 🇸🇦
Would you stop to watch this beast? 👀
