Thanks for highlighting this, I have always found spotting difficult in this game and need icons . Without them I regularly got the disappearing plane syndrome.

That's great FT may I suggest 1) desert 42 2) mosquito 3) carrier Pacific 4) swordfish In fact anything different from bodenplatte 44-45 See you next Saturday

Kira has been on touch with me and we are floating the idea of flying il2 again , it would be fun to fly some of the old favourite and different theaters. So is anyone else interested? A few issues, 1) dates, squad callander is pretty busy and I know a lot fly on various nights but Saturdays are generally free so I'm proposing a week tomorrow 29th aug at 20:00 GMT as a start to see interest I'd also like a test prior to the night so looking for volunteers . We can arrange suitable time if interested. 2) iv not hosted in years so I'll need to find out how to set router etc and see what missions I have, any help e.g. idiots guide would be appreciated 3) controls layout etc , if anyone is interested then please check out controller ets to make sure everything works ok on the night Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated Dave

Bring me a shrubbery

I hit a tree while staffing, I was not killed but plane was wrecked. Glad to know I didn't lose pilot but a warning to be more careful

Apologies for poor show tonight , was a bit tired with working on house all day and it showed

What happened? I thought mission was processed?

I fly GBS and would still fly il2 46 if there was any interest, outside that I like racing Sims especially the dirt series and I have a Wii u for mario cart and other Nintendo classics

Yes but fen used the pwcg to confirm kills, can we not just go on the in game generated results to confirm results and use these to update tally board until the issues are resolved, that way people would get credit due .

Would there be a way of manually imputing results based on results given in game when you finish mission, that way folk would get credit nfor successful mission, I know it's not quite what was planned and might be a bit of work but just a thought

squadron done well Colin hit all targets and all returned home, no air to air. oleg trees are biatches

Like remembering to back up 5 mins After you really need to

Not the big red switch master.....

iTS ALIVE MASTER.....................................ITS ALIVE we have interweb hope to join on Sunday

New man cave, still waiting on sky to sort out interweb

Well no joy with sky , but I have got a new desk to set up, hopefully be back early August

Well moved in but problem with line means I won't be online untill end of month😫 will keep harassing them to get it done sooner but don't hold out much hope

All gone to local enthusiast

Due to house move and family stuff I won't be online flying for a while, probably back late July. Will keep in touch on forums Regards Dave

Apologies but won't make tonight due to family Good flying all

Glad to see everything went well, enjoyed the mission and had no stutters, ground enemy was very low in numbers but we may need to continue with this to prevent problems. The ju88 I was credited with would be a shared kill in reality as Pooka put a few rounds in and did some damage

I am moving house and have a variety of 1/48 aircraft and helicopter that I have no space for, There are ww2 RAF USAAF and Luftwaffe, including tomahawk hurricane p47 p52 bf109s Fw190 a and d Post war harriers and phantoms helicopter s 1/72 Vulcan and Lancaster If interested then get in touch ,I can send photos etc. As these are plastic kits I can't guarantee sage postage but will box up as best I can

Apologies for my intemperance tonight. . I don't get as much time to fly and look forward to our missions and I just think it is is frustrating that we spent an hour trying to launch a mission I realise that we are pushing boundaries and that the basic game struggles to cope with what we are trying to do but we are not helping each other by some of our actions. We need to be smarter to help each other, it is difficult to get a successful launch so we should all be a bit disciplined at the start to give us the best chances of success. make sure your hardware is working prior to mission Make sure you have read through this thread, understand what is required and are able to start, taxi, take off, formate fly and land the P-38 Make sure you have the correct skins available make sure you reboot the game prior to joining, Once you have joined the server, follow your squadron leaders instructions on loadout pick your skin and ready up quickly. Once mission has launched touch nothing untill instructed by squadron leader Squadron leader should instruct on wing position and you should follow instructions on rolling out and takeoff. On a personal note I would like limited restarts e.g. two or three depending on number effected. If only one or two have issues then mission should proceed, only if there are multiple issues then a restart should be called This has the potential to be very imersive and exciting. It would be a shame if technical issues etc put paid to Tom's hard work.

One thing that would help the orginisation is if squadron leaders gave out assignments and loadout as quickly as possible so people could ready up and taxi quickly. If there are no obvious reasons to change the order that we flew the last few times then squadron leaders could post their preferred order now. If anyone is absent on the night the slot stays vacent , the only issue would be large absences where flights may have to merge. This would give people the oppertunity to improve skills by flying the same formation each week and get used to their wingmen.
