A2A constellations FLAPS no SOUNDS...

Post by bobtams »

It would be better to have a FLAPS sounds after activating it for Take-off and Landings... :lol:... B377 remember if you set the flaps you can hear it activating.... thanks...

That's because the 377 uses electric flaps, that have a rather loud electrical motor that whines. The Constellation uses available hydraulic power which is silent. The flaps gauge is your only way to know if the flaps are moving.

Yeah, if I remember correctly, unlinke the electricals, pumps are connected to and driven by the engines, so good luck hearing them against 18 cylinders and a propeller :lol:
