    To be fair if you pay for it then do what you like to enjoy yourself. I don't like whiskey snobs, if you want cola or lemonade in a drink then crack on, I personally think malt is better with just water but that's me

  9. Tank Fest / Dog Fight Event - Debrief - Let me know your thoughts Please

    Colin thanks for putting it together and I appreciate that it was a tank focused mission but I have a few suggestions on how the air side could be improved for future.

    1) targets

    It is very difficult to hit a moving tank, ( I only remember one hit all night by plane) especially so in cover, so perhaps add bridges fuel dumps or repair buildings or supply trains.etc to make air side more varied.

    Spread targets around , so not concentrated in one area, having only one target makes it easier to defend against bombers. 

    2) agreed airfield was too close together and too close to target say bombers 10 Min flight to target .

    3) increase choice of plane and loadout, 109 couldn't carry bombs and only had 15mm cannon

    4) air icons , I just couldn't see planes so if possible add air icons only.

    I think most of this was in original scenario

  13. Searching question of the day.

    Hi mate , its a question dear to my heart as I am also shite at calculating gunnery. I have studied it and put a collection of tips here, including ww2 RAF, Luftwaffe and USAAF docs

    In BOX I have my convergence at 300m and give a lot of lead, if the bandit is turning at all I am basically shooting blind under my nose. Dont chase the pipper, try to learn how many rings lead for the angle the bandit is off. Getting in close is good.

    The FW is very sensitive to changes in Angle of attack (or pitch) try to fly as smooth as possible and set up your attack , best practice is you shouldnt be turning in it , dive, turn no more than 20 degrees then wings level and zoom up again

    Hope that helps

    Hi and welcome, we fly Box on Tuesday and Sunday nights . We are online around 2000 hrs UK time. Format is dogfight server for 30 mins to warm up then into co ops. We also host events, currently flying a p-38 campaign and a tank/plane event planned.

    We use teamspeak for communication

    We fly coops using all versions of the SIM and bodenplatte is almost necessary to take part.

    In addition there are squad members from united states and Canada and they host nights suitable for your time zone.

    We do not usually fly full real but allow incons etc. However you should be comfortable with engine start and management and twin prop plane control

    The is no ranking per se in the squad tho some senior members have a committee to help run the squad

    The most important is that we are a FUN friendly group that have been flying together for many years and welcome all but the most absolute idiots. 

    There is plenty of experience, support and advice in the squad and I'm sure you would enjoy being around

  16. Dog Fight Scenario- Limited Plane/Tank Numbers?

    in Jim's Place

    Posted

    I think tanks should be unlimited and aircaft limited depending on number of of fighters and flak density, if low like on the P-38 mission then say 3 per pilot. If higher then more. Plane type is more difficult, but I'd keep it simple put up a proposed list, let folk have a say then make a decision by throwing some chicken bones in the air and see how they land, you won't please everyone anyway 😆😆😆

     

  21. New player looking for help and a group to play with

    Hi and welcome, as the guys have said we fly predominantly Tuesday and Sunday 1900 to 2000  GMT  start for BoX but there are others in USA hosting  in their time zone.

    Most of us have all the addons and mostly fly bodenplatte missions. You should have dual engine controls mapped to allow you to fly some missions.

    For X-45

    I have mode 1 for engine management

                               mode 2 flying 

                               mode 3 bombing 

    I have made a spreadsheet here you can copy if you wish, some keystrokes are diferent from game default so you will have to ensure x-45 and game match

    If you want some info to study then I collected all my notes here you can pick through at your leasure 

    If you want help on specific items then best time to meet online  would be before tuesday and sunday sessions as that is when majority are available but some of the USA guys may be avaiilable at other times, just post on forum and see if someone can help.
