ATR-72 then the CRJ-700 (CRJ in general). I don't know what it is with these two aircraft but until you have dealt with them in real life, I can't explain.

First, until you get to hear the distinctive wang/hum/rumble of those Hamilton Standard blades in the wind, you'll have no idea! Go to Flight Level 350 and watch a couple clips with them running on the ramp and you'll see what I mean.

Then comes the CRJ. Those GE-CF34 has a particular "scream" to them when they spool up and you'll only be able to hear it from the outside.
