can we have buffetting and vibes?  With buffeting and vibes (or some shaking on plane) we can tell if the plane is about to stall

Stall horn (which is not realistic or historical) is there to simulate buffetting, so HT has said.

If you listen carefully, there is a buffet sound or rustle on many planes, ususally farther into the envelope past the stall horn. I know I hear it when I push a stall too far --



and I was very impressed yesterday when I was buffeting, and looked out the rear to see the elevators flutter!! That appearance vanished when I reestablished lift!! VERY cool.

if you do not like the stall horn, download Waffle's soundpack.

Waffles soundpack is no longer available online.  However, Mitzu has a really good wind buffet stall warning that I highly recommend.  I like it better than waffles (sorry Waffle).  It's the one titled "stall" and I believe it's his default stall warning.  It's much less anoying than that horn blaring constantly...
