Slat bang?

[default762792]

Kind of an idle question, but is there or has there ever been a sound effect in the DCS Bf109K-4 module for the supposedly-audible "bang" that the slats made when they extended quickly, as several Luftwaffe pilots (who would certainly know better than I) recount? Once or twice I thought I heard something but it was probably my imagination so to to test it I unchecked "hear like in helmet", took one up, killed the engine and jettisoned the canopy and did some violent high-AoA maneuvers. They definitely popped out with alacrity but I never heard them making a sound. Anyhow, just curious - both regarding the simulation and the reality. Thanks for any information!

I dont think so that this sound is present.

But i bet that 90% of strenth of this sound will travle through wing structure and cocpit structure to pilot so, i would suggest that best way to hear that would be with cannopy closed, engine off.

From outside this sound probably is bearly hearable.

Ah, thanks. i'll try it with the canopy closed...just for science. :)
