Logos Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hmmm? Who gives a rip about them crap fires bouncing on landings? The only thing they are good for is Luftwaffe target practice. Just leave the gear up and belly land with a plane full of NAZI lead. That is all. Logos Evil Red Forces. Thought you might have missed me.

GreyKnight Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Bucky, I just spoke to Painless and he said he's more than happy to skip Sunday's SEOW, in order to do some training with you. Despite what everyone says about him, he really is a nice man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enforcer57 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Make sure Painless gives you some instruction regarding inflating and paddling a life raft. He has considerable experience at this after the last misn, thanks to our cyborg AI drone in a 109 we recently aquired from a crashed UFO. BTW, it took me forever to learn how to take off in a Seafire without nosing over. I wonder what makes it so prone to do so while the Spits dont. The only plane I have trouble landing is the 109. That spindly outward folding landing gear on the Spit and 109 are a real pain, as they were in reality. The idea was to lighten the designs by not having a heavy wing spar to support inward folding gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattler Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I might be able to give you a hand too tomorrow, Bucky, if you want. I just went practicing on the Seafire today, and landed 4 out of 5 (first one hit the stern - rusty....) What trouble are you having exactly? edit - if you're already getting help with Mick, then disregard if you wish... Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattler Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Roger that, mate. For what it's worth, I've been landing at 100 knots IAS, ad keeping my "point of aim" focussed on the bow of the carrier. It seems to keep me in a good approach angle and speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
