Greetings

I have searched previous forums to avoid duplication, humble apologies if my search techniques are antiquated....

 

Anyway, when up in the air, the howling of the wind in the cockpit is such a distracting that I no longer fly the thing. Even when I turn all sound off via x11 settings, the wind is still really loud and am surprised it overrides these overall settings to be honest. I have even checked that doors are closed during flight it is that loud. 

Presumably this is a hot start internal engine output but I am a bit concerned there are no ways to tone it down a bit. It honestly sounds like a force 10 cyclone in the cockpit howling angrily at me until I land and go under 70kts. I haven't flown a real 900 but surely the wind noise is not like that in real life. Even with virtual earphones on it is still loud. 

I can upload a video if need be, I just thought I would ask the question.

Yes, wind is definitely pretty noticeable. People say this is the same in the real plane, I don't know as I have never been in one. 

But I can imagine it must be pretty loud as you are cruising around 300 knots. 

My tip: Grab the headset from your copilots seat, it's there for a reason. ;)
