February 28, 20224 yr Just updated to SU8 and now in several aircraft (stock and aftermarket) there is this strange random noise that sounds like a vacuum cleaner inside the cockpit. Starts off loud then "spools down" and then goes away form a few minutes then repeats. Has anyone else heard this or is it time for me to regret the questionable chemical choices I made decades ago? 🙄 Brian MacMillan Intel Core i9 14900KF/64GB RAM/RTX 4080 Super/LG ULTRAWIDE (3440x1440@100Hz)
February 28, 20224 yr Could it be AI traffic? Sometimes they are unreasonably loud in the cockpit even from a far distance…comes on quick then fades out.

February 28, 20224 yr I have this, too. It was there already during the beta. As @regis9 writes, I ascribed it to AI traffic (using AIG) but I'm not sure about this because sometimes I don't see any AI plane close enough to causing this. Didn't find time for closer examination but you're not alone. Your description is spot on.

February 28, 20224 yr I experience the same, in any aircraft. It happens midair with no other aircraft in immediate vicinity. The sounds disappear immediately when setting AI traffic to zero. 56 minutes ago, regis9 said: Could it be AI traffic? Sometimes they are unreasonably loud in the cockpit even from a far distance…comes on quick then fades out. It's not an adequate sound of another aicraft passing by being played too loud. It sounds more like an engine spool up sound you would expect to hear on the apron. 42 minutes ago, pmb said: Just saw this: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/su8-constantly-hearing-powered-jet-engine-sounds-in-cesssna-208b-cockpit/501758 You can vote there.

I was not sure if it was caused by AIG or the beta and didn't find time for thorough testing. I reported some issues but not this one. I should have done, no excuse.

February 28, 20224 yr I just experienced it too for the first time. I was landing with the default 172. / CPU: Intel i7-9700K @4.9 / RAM: 32GB G.Skill 3200 / GPU: RTX 4080 16GB / Freight Pilot
February 28, 20224 yr I just had it in the C172 and in the JF Arrow. Seems to be universal. To my excuse, it seems to be much more abundant in the release SU8 than in the beta.

February 28, 20224 yr err, no this was reported during BETA about 18 days ago. Guess they are too overwhelmed with other bugs to worry about this creepy sound in our cockpits. HOW do these type of bugs get introduced? https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/ai-traffic-sounds-exaggerated/497232/3

March 1, 20224 yr Go to your sound options and just turn down other aircraft. Vacuum gone. Happy Landings,
