This will give you a variety of targets. Go to "Single Missions", then USAF, then P-51D, then Comrades in Arms. You and your AI mates against 8 relatively docile FW-190 fighter bombers, 4 He-111's and 4 Ace Bf-109's. And since you have some buds with you not everyone is shooting at you. As...

When I saw this post the first show that came to mind was Caprica. I wanted to like that show because I was a big Battlestar Galactica fan, but the show just gets me down. Then it hit me that every character in the show is a freaking psychopath.

Thank you heartless bastards:) It turned out to be a hardware problem...the rudder pedals. Their customer support was so cool I've edited out the mfg's name in the original post. If the moderator wants to reinstate... It's his option. Never admit a mistake!

Nope...first thing I checked. At this point, after unplugging the rudder peddals and rebooting I can now get back into the air sans HOTAS rudder. But considering my spelling in the OP I don't blame you for asking.

46, no mods: I was flying the YF-80 single mission the other day and I couldn't get it above 90kph on take-off. I reflew the take-off a few times and it seemed to have cleared up. But now I can't get any taildragger off the ground or back on for that matter because the breaks are stuck on...

Literally very cool...The Hopsicle Experience | Introducing the Beer Popsicle | New York City | NYC | East Village | Restaurant

This is kind of cool... View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi4g_U0hoOg I'm assuming it uses FFFF black powder, but it doesn't seem very smokey.

I get the tactical advantages or disadvantages of the 190, ganted, there are days I don't have the patience to do it right. Its just that in my version of the sim (46 patched to 4.09 with no mods) the the 190 doesn't seem to have the same audio feedback, change in engine noise for example, that...

I probably shouldn't post here being into IL-2 just over a month or so...but so far my favorite is the Spit. It's so naturally flyable and so easy to fly clean. My biggest dissapointment...the FW-190. The D-9 gets my vote as the sexiest fighter of WWII as a modeler, but it sux to fly in...

Most deffinately. Thats one of things I like about it. It "forces" a little research...which is akin to being forced to have a little fun.

>>>Thanks Beau. No account there yet but I might just take you up on that. I was about ready to stomp on my TrackIR unit until I learned to center it low enouph to be able to look high. Now it works great. Hellava difference. My biggest problem now is learning to fly clean. Constantly...

Good to know Deacon. Thanks. I can't tell you how much fun I'm having with this. I simply can't believe I didn't even know about IL-2 until I started running into clips on YouTube while searching for gun camera films about 6 months ago. At the time I was irked at those "animated fakes"...

Is there a source for max. flap and gear speeds for IL-2 flyable aircraft...as well as min. stall speeds? I'm looking at the airspeed guage (bf-109) and would expect to see colored arcs representing those indications but I'm not seeing them. Or am I looking at the wrong instrument? I can...

Sooner or later I won't be able to resist; Probably sooner. Right now I'm just following the Nuggets Guide and it's really helpful. Just familiarizing myself with the hat switch operation and visual "situational awareness" is difficult but becomming easier. But your right...the sooner I...

Sounding strangely like a curse:twisted:
