I too still like to fly FSX:yeah:
As for X-Plane 10, it looks great down to the smallest detail such as the road traffic wil actually drive routs on the road and I think the roads will be modeled after real roads but the cities will all be auto-generated, so not modeled after any city :down: I am still waiting for more info on MS Flight. That one sounds promising. |
Okay, I know this is hugely Off Topic, but I just found this amazing thing on Wikipedia. It's quite large, so I will link it rather than post it as a picture. What is it? Well it's a visual representation of the number of British aircraft used during the big raid on Dresden in 1945. Imagine seeing that in a flight sim one day! :o

Similarly off-topic, at Brize Norton's civvy flying club they have a photo of some 30+ (a guess, it's been a while since I've seen it) Horsa gliders all vying for the same airfield. :o No go-arounds, just land, and if the glider just in front stops quicker than you :doh:

Not quite that big, but BoB II's major raids can be really breathtaking in scale - we're still talking hundreds of aircraft. And it actually doesn't require a supercomputer to run and looks darn nice :yep:
As far as I know, big raids aren't a 'new' thing either, it's actually that most newer games (like IL-2) have regressed in terms of numbers lately. EAW for example, from what I recall, was also known to have supported massive packages. |
The last and desperate fight of German pilots to defend the motherland against the USAAF bombers. So desperate, that even a damaged plane, that has lost a landing gear, has the engine damaged and is leaking fuel rolls towards the combat, ready to fight till the last bullet.

Rainy day in November. The boys on the ground must be really sick of it...

Another bombing mission in the rain...this time a rail-station! Unfortunately, we didn't really hit anything of importance (unless you count grass as a vital resource for the war industry) but at least we made it back unscratched! Curiously enough, the next day we were tasked to attack the same place! A consequence for not being able to raze the place the first time, or pure randomness? I hope the first, but think the latter :haha: |
