Pinging sound in Flight Simulator

TimTim · Guest

OK

I am a Flight Enthusiast (sorry for spelling) and would like it if there were a download to make a pinging sound everytime the wheels go up or down in a plane

Is there such thing about??

Thanks for the help in advance,
Tim

Eh... yeah??

Do you know what I am talking about??

When the plane is taking off, you hear a ping when the pilot raises the landing gear...

Is it possible to get this ping in Flight Simulator 2004??

In a real aircraft, there is no ping sound when the pilot raises the gear. You heard a signal for the Flight attendants. Smile

the ping is just some idiot that hits the "I NEED A FLIGHT ATTENDENT!!!! CAUSE IM A WUSS" or the flight attendents talking to the aliens.

No, I think you are wrong

There are two types of pings... a single ping (heard when gear is raised and as far as I know also when gear is lowered) and a double ping (ping-ppiinngg) when the pilot wants one of the cabin crew

To give an example of what I mean:

Watch it at 20seconds when the co-pilot raises the wheels

Yes, that video is a simulator but they do have that sound in real life planes as well (well some of them anyway)

I was in a Ryanair 737-800 yesterday on a flight from London Stansted to Dublin International Airport and I could see the shadow of the plane on the ground when taking off. I heard a ping, and wolla, the wheels went up, and the Ryanair plane I was on was real Smile

Is there any way to make this happen for one or two planes in FS2004 (just maybe the 737). I never edited a planes files before in FS so I am new to it

And yes it is the same sound as a seatbelt ping but also works for the gears up and down on a plane

I would like to be able to edit the files of the b737_400 to make the sound for wheels up to change to the sound but with a ping mixed in there, if you know what I am saying

Also I would love if I was able to press a button to make a ping noise, but I don't think that is possible without using some sort of Reverse Engineering, which is illegal, and I don't know enough to do it

That could be a feature of the new models of aircraft, I have never heard of it. I don't even know what purpose it would serve. To answer your question, no there is no download for a ping. Smile

If you have a good download with excellent sounds you can hear the landing gear go up and down but as to the ping, I've never heard it in either real life or in the sim.
Get into designing gauges and aircraft and see how you can make a utility that can be installed to do that.
That's one of the joys of this sim, you can create and model what you want.

Alright, just forget about it then, it was a bit hopeless from the start anyway Wink

RadarMan, what is that download with the great sounds (I just like great sounds, whether it has a ping or not Big Grin

I don't know what type of aircraft your looking for but go to www.avsim.com (free sign-up) and do a search in their file library for a large download. The larger it is the bigger the sound file.
It may even say something in the file description.

Maybe these might have it. Turn the sounds up in the settings section of your flight sim menu.

You can also install some of these sounds.
