Oh hey, OFF fliers. I got a tip for ya:

If you want your wingmen to attack a target, press tab to mark one (target that is), then press "S" as in "Split" and AFTER that you press "A" as in "Attack". The closer your wingmen are to your plane, the bigger the chance they'll see the command. You use hand signs now.

I think we SubSim Aviators are familiar with the one and only hand signal we ever need. :rotfl:

To: Biggles,

Thanks for the Tip . I always wondered why my Wingman did not always respond.

5 kills win

the last round we both had
4 kills and 9 deaths (mostly because of crashin the aircraft)
we went head to head and he managed to destroy my aircraft.

indeed the short 184 was fun, its a bit darn dificult to aim with the joystick, the AI was flying but at the end I had to take over as the aircraft had no controls left tried to land but failed

What got you Kratos? Just started a new career in a Nieuport, so different to a Pup, a bit more of a handful but managed to bag what I think was an Albie after the Bosch launched a raid on my aerodrome. One of my wingmen brought it and me and the Albie were dogfighting at 25 feet, it's amazing how everything else just fades out except the ground, the crosshairs and the enemy, you become part of the aircraft, you know where everything is in relation to you.
Takes a special kind of sim to drag you in that much

Had a bash with the SE5, but brought it over a Bosch airfield after a direct flak strike in the cockpit Least, that's what I think it was, one moment I was flying, the next I was in pieces over the French landscape. :hmm:
