Hey folks!

Since HotFix Update 1.0.2 I can hear a 'growl' sound when applying maximum reverse thrust, which wasn't the case before. Can you address this with your next update please?

Thanks a lot! :)

Cheers,
Matt

Full / max reverse, which means slightly above 90% N1.

I know, in most cases YouTube videos are not a good demonstration material, but I have a lot of jumpseat experience on the -300 and it sounds more like this (jump to 7:05):

And as I already wrote in my initial post, it was much more realistic before the 1.0.2 update...

Recommended max reverse thrust for normal operations is about 80%N1 to preserve engine life.  So if you hear the growl thats because you exceeded that, and they would normally never do in real unless it's and RTO or something.  The sound happens when the N1 fan tip speed goes supersonic.
