Howdy y'all,
 
I flew my new DC-6 last night and it is AWESOME! I have one question though about the sounds, I have the windows shut (as far as I can tell, tried open and closed seems to be no difference) but this bad boy is LOUD!!
 
 I realize this is a loud plane but I can't even hear air traffic control over the noise and shouldn't the piolt have on headphones? (BTW side note, my wife throws a fit until I put on my headphones oh how I laughed), also a funny thing is is it quieter outside the aircraft than inside.
 
 Is there anything I may be doing wrong or is there a way to turn this down a bit?
 
I also have the DC-3 and it's sounds are much more natural.
 
thanks, and I LOVE my DC-6!!

Hi, you can use the sounds menu to adjust the levels if you like.

Hay RAS thanks for the reply!

 Would that be the sound menu inside the game window? (menu bar at the top of the window) or the actual game menu? Because it completely drowns out the Air Traffic Control, if I turn down the sounds would this also turn down the ATC?


 Currently I have my game menu sounds set to a level that are perfect for all my other aircraft, this one is much louder for some reason, can this be adjusted any other way?


if not it's cool I'll work around it, I'm kinda new to FSX

thanks man
