Sound Pack Compatibility Note: This sound pack will work with any aircraft model, both freeware or payware in FSX and P3D.

These light observational choppers are nimble, accurate agile and very easy to fly. Having been around since the 1960s, they are a popular part of the civilian helicopter niche. However, just like any other aircraft in FSX and P3D, the audio experience can feel generic and lacking. This helps to add the fun sounds that you can learn from, making you both a better pilot and a more precise pilot.

The aircraft was a major part of the Hughes Aircraft range until their purchase by McDonnell Douglas in the 1980s. Part of what makes these aircraft so good for both civilian and military purpose is their quiet nature. It’s flexible an easy to fly, it’s quick and comfortable to control and it’s also very hard to detect due to low noise pollution for an aircraft.

With a five-blade main-rotor and four-blade tail rotor, this has more than enough lift to keep it in the skies for a long time to come. Now, with the help of the new sounds, you can enjoy a much more enterprising and inviting experience overall. These new sounds do a great job of making sure that the stalker-like silence and the nimble nature of the MD-500 is captured accordingly here.

High-quality recordings were used for every part of the experience. This helps to make this helicopter fun to fly, and fun to listen to.
