Dowly has a mic now? I'll log on for that....

I don't seem to have much time at the mo.....

Hunter any chance we can have a fantasy 1946 jet based campaign once all this is done? I'm playing the 1946 VVS stock campaign and like it. Only thing with jets though is I turn of engine overheat or else it is no fun....

Oh I also put in a new keyboard that has cyrillic on the keys too...For some reason my Fkeys don't work in IL-2.....It is a US format keyboard not a UK one.....any ideas?

I'll believe that only if and when I hear him.

Turn off overheat? You just need to fly fast enough and the engine doesn't overheat at all (450-500km/h+)

Anyway, if we're running a jet campaign after this (I think only the 44/45 Germany campaigns have them though), I want my Arado 234!

Don't think it'll happen though, Hunter doesn't like them jets too much me thinks

It's getting the jet up to that speed. I don't fly at high level so I am stuck at crappy speeds no faster than a prop.

Be a bit more patient,
with the ME262 I take off with 100% when it starts to overheat I go to 80%-85% and climb to about 2000 - 2500 Meters and speed up by dropping 500 meters in a gentle dive wich give me more speed for the meters I drop going 100% throttle and with that speed I climb higher and then I try to maintain the airspeed and can go 100% for quite some time, myself I drop down to 80%-90% to keep the engines as cool as possible and only go 100% in Combat situation.

Seems that our Online party is in a Pause at the moment due real life things, let's have a little break untill most of us is able to fly again in the evenings.

@Raptor1: I dont mind the Jets actually, I find them quiet fun to fly.
Never tried a campaign with them thought.
perhaps a idea after we finished with the currently gran campaign.

Flying jets against AI is a pain in the a$$ because they can always go 100% throttle. If you start to fight them you have to maneuver which will decrease your speed and then your engine(s) will overhaet in no time while the AI can still utilize it's full power. No chance! No fun!


PS
Like Xabba I can only fly on fridays and saturdays.
