If you watched the video at the top of the thread, that was the source for the soundset. Okay, maybe his position was a little in front of the pilots, but still pretty close. And the only part that is changed is that bit at full throttle during takeoff. The rest of the sound set is the original. I almost deleted it, but tried it a few more times and thought it was authentic enough for me to keep. Opinions will vary. I presume that the person who created that sound set just cleaned out some of the extraneous sounds not connected with the engines.

The bomb bay was a little shinier on both sides after I went through. :D

I hope so.... I would like to try it too.
The bad news is time flies. Good news is you're the pilot.
