I still can see some of the Spits flying with canopy open on the video. Guess why

Well, sitting yesterday in a 109 I got badly surprised. So no longer sound radar here.

Sitting before yesterday in a spit (with closed cockpit) I could hear the 109 that overshot me ...

Where is the report in the bugtracker (for voting on it) or is it to be created?

I don't want to hear any external sounds with my engine running whether with open or closed cockpit. Should be not too difficult to implement. They have already successfully implemented a difference in sounds when opening or closing canopy (wind sound or no wind sound). So they just need to add an if clause checking for engine running or not.

It's still blatantly wrong that open canopies allow to hear external sounds and come at no drag panalty. Equally wrong is that external sounds can be heared with closed canopies as well.

Are there any other aircraft for which external sounds can be heard?

EDIT: one also hears the 109 whizzle inside the 109 cockpit ...

Prior to the latest Beta Sonar Sound with canopy closed no longer ocurred.
After this Beta Sonar Sound though no where near as bad as previously is back even with canopy closed.

I think previously the Canopy Open/Close was a temporary fix to kill Sonar Sound. Agree with Stormcrow it shouldnt be a criteria to determine Sonar Sound ON/OFF.

So Yes Sonar Sound is back, but not as dramatic as iy once was .... but shouldn't be there at all !

Simulator this, simulator that... at last for most the only important thing is to take down the enemy...

If it could be done in the 109 too I'm quite sure there will be many guys doing the same: it's because issues like these that I like to fly within a limited community.

A whole generation of pilots learned to treasure the Spitfire for its delightful response to aerobatic manoeuvres and its handiness as a dogfighter. Iit is odd that they had continued to esteem these qualities over those of other fighters in spite of the fact that they were of only secondary importance tactically.Thus it is doubly ironic that the Spitfire’s reputation would habitually be established by reference to archaic, non-tactical criteria.

It exists.

In my Hurricane I hear all other aircraft to some degree, more with the cockpit open. I often hear a sneaky 109 before I see it. Comforting but not realistic.

thats false...you can definitely hear other airplanes inside your own cockpit in clod...which shouldnt be the case(though i have to confess that it sounds nice)

maybe it should be optional in the difficulty settings...

another thing which i dont like is the fact that many fly with open canopy online.i would suspect that in real life not many pilots would fly with an open canopy, except for take offs and landings maybe.
