Got it. I know why too - key press goes neutral inbetween up and down for some ridiculous reason!

Will try harder to be upside-down and on fire.

Well, you can always do what I like to do, just after lowering landing gear. Go to outside view to verify.

Though this may be unrealistic to do, in real life there probably would have been a spotter on the ground or a wingman to confirm this.

External view not available on the ATAG server, and unfortunately Very pistols aren't replicated in game - but that'd be a great add-on to get a go-around during your approach.

Should be easy to those in the know to get a red flare fired if you're say below 200m within 1km of the airfield without your gear down!

"One of your relief, trying to land without wheels."

"Undercarriage lever a bit sticky was it, sir?"
"Why, yes as a matter of fact, it was"
"I wouldn't tell the CO that, sir...not if I were you."

How did the idea for a clipped wing Spit come about?

Watch this, and it's obviously not a waffle!

Wow, that kind of flying requires nerves of steel

, even in a Sim

Just came across this little gem!

CloD aircraft operations manual

@HunterICX - I don't know exactly what happened last night after our vertical tête à tête but after being on target for about 15 mins doing the odd strafing run whilst our last Ju-88 was winging it's way over the channel (server was due to switch maps in 10 mins!), I ran out of fuel - quick thinking - crash into the target.

So I crashed into the target taking out much less than I thought I would, and it credited you with my demise!!!

You must've got a lucky strike on me somewhere...

The beta patch has been released:
http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=31759

Tho, looking at the Known Issues list, I think I'll wait for the full release.

Dowly · 05-09-12, 12:23 PM

Meanwhile in the Oleg-verse...

1440x900, no shadows, no grass, no roads, 8xAA and other settings at low/medium = bad performance

1920x1080, shadows, grass, roads, SSAO, 8xAA and other settings at max = good performance

Does not compute.

HunterICX · 05-09-12, 12:27 PM

Is that with the BETA?

Dowly · 05-09-12, 12:37 PM

Nah, the beta patch keeps crashing every 20-30 minutes for me, so rolled back to the
"stable" one.
