Yep, IL2 1946 patched to 4.08m. The TS server is the GWX server hosted by Jimbuna, there's quite a few threads about it in SubSim so you should find it fast. We start our flights at 21GMT and like I said, it's on most evenings (one planned for today), so feel free to hop in.

Oh and we have now started to fly our dogfights with everything on realism except for speed bar & your own map icon.

I cant even start to imagine how hard it would be to fly with pedals after the twist handle.

And ya Dowly the words out on YOU.:rotfl:

IIRC dan and hunter said to give you plenty of room.:p
Dan? Hell, that info is then atleast 350 years old. I think our "master of landings" is now Kratos, he get's the plane down to the runway but usually with abit too much speed. Me and Hunter are usually just watching from the side Kratos' plane go tires screeching past us and then you hear a big crash and a faint voice: "Guys... I'm stuck...". :rotfl:
Yea pick on me why dont you

Whoa, what joystick you got? Oh and yes, locked cockpit and all that. Though it would give a bit more change for the rest of us against Mr. Wondershot, but then I realised the bastard has TrackIR.

I got a visit from my sister the other day and she happen to mention she's got this and a sidewinder gamepad she bought and never used.Soooo me being me says ''if you dont use it gee's it'' She said sure and sent it down to me when she got home. I like idea of the seperate throttle, which you can seperate the throttle and the joy and have either side of keyboard.but the joystick spring is not as tight as my logitech, it still needs a bit calibration,because it doesnt have the same feel as my other one.

ps gonna phone her tonight and ask if perhaps she got a track ir she bought and doesnt use :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Looks like a very good joystick. I like how there's buttons on the throttle handle.
