Is there anywhere that I can download flaps sounds alone? At avsim, you have to download all aircraft sounds, and it's a huge file. I'm looking for the (almost) whining sound of the flaps' movement.

Thanks

Why not find some sort of digital sound generator and make you own? How about recording your own vocal sound effect, then digitally manipulating it with some sort of music program? Hey, it's a start...

Trivia question: Do you know how the sound of the blasters for Star Wars was made, way back in 1976 when the movie was in production? The "sound people" went out to a telephone pole and whacked the guy wire with an adjustable spanner ( a "crescent wrench" here in America). They tried many other sounds, but that was the one that had what it took. Neat, huh?
