Jet Ranger Sound? Here's the Thing ...

Oh, Brandon, what a pedantic wee soul you are. Do you work for the government by any chance? Have you any idea how long it takes a person of my advanced age to type out 'Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations'? I'd like to indulge you on this, but typing 'Eagle Rotorcraft Simulations' umpteen times in one post would seriously impinge upon my drinking time. The best deal I can offer you is 'ERS' (which I've just realized is even quicker to type than 'Eaglecraft' - clever me!). If it'll make you happy, I promise to wear a hair-shirt for the rest of the afternoon as punishment for my horrendous faux pas (can't promise I'll wear it hairy-side in, though).

Regarding the sound issue: well, I have to give you your due ... it was caused by the engine type specified in the aircraft.cfg! Owen's JR uses engine type '5' (Turboprop), while the ERS versions state engine type '3' (Helo-Turbine). Simply changing engine type to '5' in the ERS .cfg file enabled the Gonzalez sound system to work in both models.

This is likely the answer for others having similar sound woes - just make sure all models specify the same engine type and your custom sound for Owen's JR will probably work in the ERS FL/LS ones.

Happy Hovering!
