According to the Bedienvorschrift of June 1942 the Gustavs had an audible warning signall when the landing gear wasn't locked down anymore and flaps where extended. That way the flaps wouldn't be extended by accident.

The warning "sound" has been very nicely added in some 1946 mods and it doesn't half make a racket! ;)

Nope, the warning sound wasn't added in some 1946 mods, it was just "tweaked" in, it was fully intergrated in game from the first version of iL-2 Sturmovik and was always in Forgotten Battles...

The Macchi C.202 also had a horn sound when the landing gear was down.

I don't remember if it was connected to flaps down as well though...

As I found this was in all models of 109, even in Bf109Es.

Have to say this is one useful  'realistic' feature that I don't mind too much having been left out to date  ;) if there was a key  to assign to 'pull the circuit breaker' after activation it would be cool tho  :biggrin:

It`s not in this sim? I don`t fly German much, but I do remember being impressed when I flew Axis and had the warning horn about my gears. I think it did it with the flaps too. It needs to be implemented.
