SSW F-104G NASA Starfighter repaint

I am doing a repaint for the payware SimSkunkWorks F-104G in modern NASA colors.

These planes are living a third youth as research machines; head here for the real thing:

Anyone willing to test it?

I just reinstalled the freeware F-104 packages in P3Dv3.3.5 and it works quite well.
Even the mirrors in the cockpit became functional :applause:

However, I couldn't hear much of the howling sounds. From the cockpit I just couldn't hear it at all, and in the external view I could hear it, but very faint compared to the "normal" jet engine sound.
Is that normal ? In the past (back in my FSX days), it seems to me the howling sound was much stronger, as expected. Even from the cockpit. Or did I install an alternative sound set I forgot about ?

Thanks Bjoern for the reply, and I apologize to Corrado for posting in the wrong topic ! I wanted to post in that other Zipper topic in fact :/ Sorry about that.
