DC-6 Sound file.

I was over at the FlightSim library a couple of days ago and found this file, pratt_whitney_r-2800-dc6.zip and downloaded it. (I'm always on the hunt for better sound packs). I have to say this is probably the best one I've found for an aircraft with 4 R-2800s. I converted it for use in a twin engine application and have been using it in the CalClassic C-46 Commando. The only problem I've found with it is that it's a 71.8 MB file and at FlightSim takes a good while to download. But it's definitely worth the wait.
 
Hi,

I have had that file linked at the top of my DC-6 pages for some time (I helped Jon tweak them). We also have DC-7 (R-3350) sounds on my DC-7 pages, and Convair CV240/340/440 sounds (R-2800 with that little bit of whine heard in many ConvairLiners) on the Convair page.

Glad you like them,
