Folks
I have flown in the jump seat of a p-51 doing 300 knot canyon runs. The mic came unhooked momentarily and I can tell you the pilot was screaming with his face 8 inches from mine and all I could do was read his lips. You can't hear flaps or gear execpt a faint thump when it locks down. The sound in these things at speed is deafening. The pilot wore earplugs under his headset in his helmet. Given the sound levels and the fact that a WWII pilot would have a over-the-ear-headset on, the only indication you will get of enemy on your six is when his bullets (or cannon rounds) are filling your plane with holes. Also, the prop outline is more obvious and much bigger than what we have in this sim. Might be an FOV issue tho.
