APU sound

Featured Replies

The APU has a volume which is universally the same volume in the cockpit and in the external view. Whereas the engines have the FSX front-to-back transition, the APU just blasts away at full volume regardless of position.Was this intented?

well i dont know what you are hearing but ive not been able to hear any apu sound at all from any position , viewkav

Hi ahuimanu,Please sign posts with your real name, as per forum rules.I think the sound you are refering to is the cockpit Fans and / or Pack sounds. Try a test by turning off all three Pack switches and seeing if this noise stops.Thanks,Armen L Cholakianhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/priv/img/forum/sig_pmdg.jpg

Yes,You are right, it is the fans in the cockpit. I thought it was the APU because I could hear it from external view.JEFF
