Bug Description

If an aircraft launched by a flying aircraft carrier has lower FlightLevel= value than the carrier, it will play its MoveSound= only first time when launching. On any following launches it won't play the sound at all. Doesn't matter if MoveSound is looped or not. Apparently the game considers such to never have landed when they dock this way.
The only exception are aircrafts with Landable=yes, as they might actually land on the ground and wait for all remaining aircrafts to be launched (normal behavior), and they will play their MoveSound after they take off (but ONLY then, they will still never play it when launched from the carrier after the first launch).

If an aircraft has FlightLevel higher than the carrier and Landable=yes, they will land normally on the carrier and MoveSound will work on any following launch. Landable=no aircrafts obviously won't land at all due to being too high, but i guess it's to be expected.

Another issue is with AuxSound 1 and 2. Aircraft launched by an airborne carrier never seem to play its AuxSound1. If the aircraft has FlightLevel below carrier's FlightLevel, then it won't play its AuxSound2 when docking either. However, when the aircraft's flight level is higher and it actually lands, it plays AuxSound1 instead of AuxSound2!

AuxSounds and MoveSound work fine for the same aircrafts i was testing when they were launched by a ground aircraft carrier (although AuxSound1 doesn't always play for that aircraft, even with a sound that does work in unmodded YR, it still did play sometimes, but i never could get it to play when the aircraft was launched by an airborne carrier).
