Class WindAircraftSoundComponent

Aircraft sound component for wind noise generated by airflow over the fuselage and cockpit. Volume and pitch increase proportionally with airspeed to simulate increased wind noise at higher speeds.

public class WindAircraftSoundComponent : AircraftSoundComponentBehaviour
Remarks

Wind noise is typically most noticeable above 20 m/s (40 kts) and increases significantly with airspeed. The component continuously plays a looping wind sound with dynamic volume and pitch modulation based on the aircraft's current airspeed.

Fields
