I thought the 109 external sound in the current 1.5 retail version was excellent. The whine/whistle of the supercharger send chills through me; it literally sounded like Death approaching. As a Spit/Hurri flier, I was admittedly jealous and wished this sound fellow could work similar magic and provide us with the iconic Merlin external sounds instead of the current delivery truck external sound/.
Alas, not to be. Furthermore, the last two betas have "nerfed" that classic 109 engine sound. Perhaps it's just me, but this was a case where it wasn't broke but it got "fixed" nonetheless. To me, the 109 now sounds more like Honda Civic with fartboxes for mufflers. Hardly any reason to fly a Spit or Hurri with canopy open anymore.......
