The 109 is very loud and sounds powerfull whereas the power of a He-111/Ju-88/Blenheim/Wellington engine is barely noticeable. The drone of a Bomber (outside and inside the aircraft) should be almost overwelming ^^ I want to fall off my chair when a group of bombers approach or when I sit in one of them with two engines left and right my ears.

Even though I generally agree, didn't the bombers really have a bit weaker and less aggressively tuned engines than the fighters, even though they had two of them which will cause more sound and resonance? If you have two fans in your PC-chassis of the same type, the sound is really not that much louder than one?

When you are at an airshow the fighters are rather loud but the twin engine aircraft are a bit softer IMO at least? That's maybe cause we often hear late war fighters that are more in the ~2000hp monster supercharger class compared to 2 x ~1000 hp bombers. In 1940 they where not that different so...

Still - I agree that the bombers lack the "fat" sound one really expects in CoD, especially as some of the fighters like the 109 are so awesome now!
