Well...now the world has seen the flying skills of Oberon....

The main question is...has it stopped laughing yet? :hmm:

I do think I've aqquired a new nickname 'Oberon the Ostrich' due to my fond habit of plowing my nose into the ground on take-off...
Managed to get Hunter once whilst he got me about twenty times...but for my first go at 1946 (although not the IL2 series admittedly) I thought I didn't do too bad. It was certainly a good laugh!

Oh...and mustn't forget to point out that Hunter managed to nail my Spit in his FW whilst suffering an engine overheat (although I did manage to twist and turn a bit to begin with...but then he looped back and caught me out...) Good shot Hunter, sliced my wing right off!

Oh, I caught your landing at the end Hunter but then the computer just froze up, and reset itself. That's how good the landing was...it made the computer restart...

Some pics:



The end result of my first take-off.... Still...nothing a bit of glue and paint won't fix, eh?



Luftwaffe BBQ anyone? Engine exploded on take-off...



Hunters landing approach in his FW, milliseconds before the computer reset, hence the black sky...
