I can confirm this sound bug. In multiplayer in a spit I flew over the German airfields and the flak opened up on me. I had heard that the flak was just a visual effect and didnt really work, dunno where perhaps I just dreamt it, so I just ignored it. Anyhow after a couple of circuits of the airfields looking for the enemy I decided to come down a bit for a closer look.I got "upsun" did a quick 180* then dived down towards the airodrome. After a quick pass seeing nothing I climbed out and intended to turn back towards the airfield.
The plane would not bank, I looked at my port wing and it had a bloody great hole in it and the aerlion wasnt working. By now I was hoping no Me109s would appear turned for home on my rudders and started praying I would see good old Blighty once more.
Sods law at this point my engine gobbed a load of oil over my windscreen and lost power. I eventually had to ditch mid channel as I reckon I was to low to jump.
To get to the point of this sorry little saga I NEVER HEARD A THING when the flak blew off half my wing and hit my engine.
