The OP's suggestion might sound tasteless but perhaps we do sometimes need to confront the reality of combat and discard the sanitised version as presented in computer games.

The original Il2 did have some screaming, and it got annoying. For some reason, I never figured out why, whenever flying the Il2 particularly, the gunner would periodically shout 'What are you doing?! Ahhhh no!' (In Russian obviously. All I can remember is the 'Ahhh Niet!!!!'). As someone else said, it was annoying as hell sometimes because it was constantly the same scream, even more so because it seemed to happen at the most random moments (for example, on takeoff/landing, flying in a straight line, parked on the ground, etc.).
I'd like to see this if it was done right though, but mainly as a part of a whole update of crew interactions, such as shouting out contacts, celebrating when getting kills, panicking when things get hairy etc.
