M-18 sounds

Actually, the Pratt & Whitney 1830's found in the default DC-3 are pretty darned close (piglets M-18 alias's to these sounds).

Ive been using a sound set available at avsim which seems to capture the loping "at idle" sounds of the M-18 a little better...at least to my ears.

Here's a youtube vid of the Dromader M-18 that you can hear startup, idle, etc.

I highly recommend to try [FONT=verdana, sans-serif]Jakub Winiarski's An-2 soundset. It's designed for An-2 obviously, but it can go with any plane which uses a Shvetsov ASh-62 engine, which the M-18 does.[/FONT] It captures the distinctive whine of the starter.

Look for an-2_sound.zip and the patch [FONT=verdana, sans-serif]an-2_fixed-sound.zip at Avsim.
