Another nice shot, Allan.

Here is your next installation of P-3 trivia.  Notice how none of the
propeller tips pass directly next to each other?  That is intentional to
reduce noise/vibration/fatigue.  There is an electronic system installed
called the "Synchrophaser" that prevents tip to tip passage and synchs
all four in RPM.  Same thing on the C-130s. They both have Rolls-Royce
T-56 engines/Ham Std Props.
