Then, explain why the countless hours applied to making trains that have turning wheels, or cars, trucks and other miscellaneous ground vehicles look and act authentic at the expense of applying these hours to the prime focus of aircraft authenicity of which AUTHENTIC sound is integral. After all, it is a FLIGHT SIM!

These sounds are not magic to obtain - there are open market samples everywhere. There are copyright samples everywhere. You can get the recordings yourself by contracting out. So many ways but it takes some cash, some dedication and some market savvy (client wants/needs), to obtain them. What may have been an issue is a focus of attention elsewhere. (Perhaps in areas that do not concern flight?)

This applies not only to the Merlin, but to all aircraft in the sim. I call your attention to all those that go ooooooh! at the inclusion of the turbo whine of the 109. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
