  • Aye everyone,
    --------------------
    Here's a special video today about a phenomene that I found really interesting. I wanted to share the few explanations and details I found about it, and see what you think about it.
    Once I was flying with the F/A-18C on DCS and when I pushed F3 for the external passing by view, I noticed this weird whistle. Firstly, I thought it was the engines being idle, but it didn't match, well not at all. I saw, by chance, this video on youtube: • Most BIZARRE F18 sound! , and by checking the comments it was really interesting. So I started to search more by myself to understand better this phenomene.
    This is a really cool detail that Eagle Dynamics thought to put on the F/A-18C module.
    Hope you're going to enjoy this one!

    I experienced this sound in 2011, produced by 4 Eurofighters. I was inside my house and I got scared a lot. Then i saw them from my window and realized what had just happened lol.

      That's an amazing feedback. Like I said on another comment, I learned by making this video that a lot of jets can make a similar noise. Don't know if it can be categorized as Blue note, but still

      Some A320 family aircraft have a distinctive whistling sound while descending but that's not from the engines. It's airflow going over the under-wing vent openings. Most of these aircraft have vortex generators fitted to eliminate that sound but there are still many without

      @ColeNorthgate  Před rokem +8

      Hey, thanks for your comment. When I made this video, I hesitated with the F104, which is, for me, different in the process than the F18 or Hunter. The Blue Note is a particular sound often made by aircrafts "special" air intakes. For me, the sound the F104 makes is more due to its engines already making this howl sound idle at ground, than with air flow.
