Considering the docking bays have atmosphere, the audio is quite lacking. I remember there was a beta build that included a lot of cool turbine sounds when in the docking bay. Whilst these sounds were cool (reminded me of the hangar scene at the end of Star Wars, with all the X and Y-Wings spooling up), I can understand if they were deemed inauthentic for the Elite craft.
However, it would be nice if star ports could include a lot more ambient effects, like the sound of traffic near the "highways", aircon units humming, beeping from (imagined) reversing loaders, echoing clangs and bangs as other ships dock and depart, etc. (Perhaps even the muffled, unintelligible shouted curses of workmen.)
