delta7

for those interested in aerial photographs there is a collection here http://aerial.rcahms.gov.uk/about/index.php includes RAF recon photos from WW2 of scotland and also germany, france etc e.g Cologne

did anyone else pick this up free with the Mail newspaper ( yeah I know debatable to class it as a proper newspaper ) last week?- its a 1950s series comissioned by the BBC covering WW2 maily from an RAF perspective . Its a bit pukka and a bit propegandaish but some great footage. Im working my way slowly through the 6 discs

remarkable . To stay focused and calm and to bring it down safe with so much going on is a testiment to their training and personnal strength.

For those thinking of starting out then check out these sites for helpful reviews/tips etc http://www.hyperscale.com/ http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/ http://www.swannysmodels.com/ this forum shows lots of step by

Pooka mentioned on TS that he and Mrs Pooka might come north to Scotland after Duxford. If this is the case or if any others plan to come to the best part of UK

just found out about this site- have just seen a few but look very good e.g. http://www.flightglobal.com/imagearchive/Image.aspx?GalleryName=Photo%20Archive/1939-1945&Image=FA_17755s http://www.flightglobal.com/imagearchive/

very nice - Im working slowly on a dc-3 in KLM colours have you seen this ??? http://www.hyperscale.com/2009/reviews/kits/tamiya60319reviewbg_1.htm surely one of the most desirable kits ever made

Hi mate I was on the other night and it worked well, hope you can keep the interest up in this S delta7

I had to use a different wrapper to get it to work - Iv put it in the vault here http://www.dangerdogz.com/K9Vault/p13_sectionid/8/p13_fileid/524

sorry mate thats as far as I can suggest unless you try to redownload and install the newer

was it installed over a clean 4.09?

the hsfx is a version of the new ultrapack 1.8,

Spitfire pilot hi-jinks found on film

One thing to note is that if you do install this then on some servers you have to disable the Zuti_DSMod for moving ground forces or the server wont let you join

Its up to the squad what they want to use but Im not sure about this update. As BG and other hosts dont use CRT=2 then any plane will be useable, and therefore any mod for that plane,

I have just traded in arma2 - its the shortist time any game has lasted in my hard drive and I feel shafted as I paid full price for it and got peanuts in return. I got the graphic glitches and crashes and life is too short to try to fix the unfixable kids are happy , they got a couple of older wii games in exchange

Here is some notes to the above 1) you have to bind some keys to work the bombsight 1) level stabaliser 2) bombsight automation 3) bombsight altitude plus 4) bombsight altitude minus 5) bombsight speed plus 6) bombsight speed minus 7) bombsight elevation plus bombsight elevation minus 9) bombsight sideslip left 10) bombsight sideslip right 11) rudder trim I have it set up on my x-45 that mode 3 is bomb mode with these set 1) level stabaliser

I always thought level bombing was a black art until I found this- works great and very easy to use so Iv copied it here DeadFall s Bombing Guide Although there are a few pilots that are able to accurately drop their bombs right in the "pickle barrel" from 15000+ft on every run, there are a lot that either havent tried, or do not know the ease of how these runs can be made accurately. I hear a number of people on comms taking their B25's low as they either havent mapped keys or cant accuratly get bombs on target other than divebombing. Flying at 18000ft, you often dont encounter a large number of enemy fighters, and with your fighter escort they usually dont have the energy for more than 1 pass. In the hope of encouraging more people to perform High Alt level bombing runs (hopefully with fighter escort) rather than getting chewed up on the deck I've taken the time to write this up to help others. Is it difficult? Not at all. Need a TAS/IAS chart or specific speed/altitude to hit the target everytime? Nope. Want to learn how? Read on. Key settings. If you havent configured your keys for the bombsight, do it now. Also do not forget to assign a level stabiliser button. First things first. An easy to set up practice bomb run. This is very simple to do and easy to repeat. Run a few of these and you will see how easy it is to hit your targets everytime. Load up FB, and choose the Quick Mission Builder. Select bomber of choice, loadout etc. Leave the map at Okinawa but change your start altitude to 5000m. When you enter the mission you will almost be facing the big concrete runway at Okinawa. This runway has static planes and cars ready to bomb. Ok, next. Level flight. There are many ways to skin this cat, but I find easiest is to use combat flaps in combination with your level stabiliser button. Without flaps and at altitudes around and greater than 15kft the level stabiliser will not hold altitude. It is possible to fix this by using full up trim, but I tend to forget to retrim before releasing level stabiliser resulting in an attempted vertical climb by my bomber, thus combat flaps is my method of choice. Ok, level flight is achieved. Next, look for the target. Jump into the bombardiers position and hit Shift F1. You will now be looking through the bombsight. Raise the bombsight so you can see the island and runway ahead. It will take a little while for your bombsight to stabilise, so it may not be displaying crosshairs immediatly. Use rudder trim to adjust flightpath and line up your target. This will not disturb the sight so you will not loose the crosshairs. Now adjust your bombsight altitude. Set it to the same value as shown in your speedbar. If you correctly used combat flaps, it should not change 9 out of 10 times from this point. Line up the crosshairs on your target and hit the bombsight automation key. Here is the key part to a simple successfull drop. Trust your bombsight crosshairs!!. If the target is sliding up or down the crosshairs adjust your bombsight speed to compensate. This will be an ongoing process right till bomb release point. Increasing bombsight speed will move the crosshairs down, decreasing = up. Use rudder trim for left/right adjustments. If the target slips too much you may need to turn off automation, and re-align the crosshairs before turning automation back on. Continue to adjust speed to keep the crosshairs directly on target. Check your altitude and make a final adjustment if nessesary. Wait for bombrelease. Sit back and watch the fireworks! **Note. If bomb delay is set to 0, you will see the impact without touching the bombsight. Now raise combat flaps turn off level stabiliser and head for home. Dont forget to jump into those gunner positions to hose down those pesky fighters setting up camp at the rear of your bomber. Hit escape click refly and your lined up again for another bombrun. S

My eyesight aint as good as it was and Im finding it hard to spot planes which makes things very hard for this old fighter jock. So Iv started to practice on bombers. I mainly use the Ju88 for blue or B-25 for red. Iv got the hang, just about , of the bombsight and automatic drops but was wondering if you guys had any good tips. I usually drop from 5000m Its a bit of a laugh at times, I usually manage to shoot down or cripple enemys with my sniper gunners but if I dont get shot down then I usually crash on landings so I need tips on surviving. In particular landing- they all seem very delicate and go

yeah

they wernt on that strongly so moved to inner pylon - thanks for input guys

nice jaguar sulky I tried to get info at brit moddler on load out and searched the net but info is scarce, harrier loadout is complicated and seemingly infinatly variable. I believe they can

revell 1/48th scale gr9 harrier a bit of filler needed but came out ok - if you look close you can even spot the 2 tones of grey used
