Very very tempting but, If it was the guns and cannon version or Air to air refueling for my thirsty buddies then for sure. I know its a later version possibility.

Has it got a working FMC?😃 Where's he pulling the chart up from?🤔 Welcome to my world Friar!

WOW !!! This is going to take some study time !!!

Really?

Haha, that would be a bit exaggerated but I try to avoid it to my best ability 🫡 It is a fun match between friends after all

I have pre-purchased it - Not buying anything else though.

Interview with developers. No code from the free mod. They started from scratch with the same team.

Running il2setup.exe and setting the screen resolution fixed the problem for Kopfdorfer. Wheels

Lol, if you have such mastery with your gunnery skills that you can pick and choose where you are going to hit an enemy vehicle with your bullets and bombs so the pilot does not get killed I salute you again @Squee7e. In my case if I get bullets, bombs, or rockets on target it is practically a miracle so I have to be satisfied that I hit the target and hopefully got out of the engagement area before getting shot down or doing something else boneheaded that gets me killed. 😁 Wheels

Despite reduced forces we still managed to gain ground and captured another FARP. Special for me as I think I had my first 1000 point night taking out the majority of a FARP (thanks to @BluBear for taking out the last two targets to enable it to then be captured), achieving a mission completed bonus and also doing some pilot CSAR.

I tried my best to not PK anyone 🙏

This Saturday August 2nd is another Hangar talk and Flying event. The featured aircraft is going to be the OV-10. Events Calendar: https://planesoffame.org/events-calendar This years Central Coast AirFest is just around the corner in October. Website: https://www.centralcoastairfest.com/ Wheels

Probably should have bailed... If you haven't guessed that mushroom cloud is me after trying to force a landing when I should have gone around or even smarter bailed once I got back over land. Congrats to @Squee7e for giving my only death for the session. Wheels

a similar incident happened the last time we did this, maybe we say no bombs on fighters.

If this really was on purpose it totally defeats the purpose of the whole event: Having fun Let's see what happens next time. I could totally understand if those that drive the tanks don't want to continue to play if the issue persists. Having to drive for vast distances just to get kamikaze'd before reaching the next flag is definitely nothing I'd put in the category of 'having fun'.

Shame 352nd have not learnt from flying this sort of mission, they are making the same mistakes last night as they did more than a year ago when we did it the last time "sorry for crashing into one of your tanks, my controls locked up and I could not avoid it", sound familiar? Not good in my opinion.

Seems like 2 huge egos, but I hope it ends well soon.

I am to make the 3rd Thursday in the month, starting next month.

@wingflyr You were missed last night Sir. Thank you for the heads up but it all went ok. I had uploaded the very latest version and enabled the splash feature as you suggested. It turned out to be too effective and the guys have requested I turn it off for next time. Other than that it all went ok with the usual smooth performance. The mission started just before dawn but with a small weather front that has moved in with light rain / snow showers in places across the map. Excellent work by myself (well I would say that) @delta7, @fruitbat, @BluBear, @DD_Fenrir and @PapaBear meant by the end of the night we had managed to make more good progress despite some stubborn SAM defences that kept getting repaired. Hopefully we will see a few more faces we are missing and would very much like to have join us next week ( @Squee7e, @Zukker, @Crash, @Squawk, @wingflyr of course) Salute Friar

Sorry I missed today Friar. Hope DCS Foothold behaved for you today, apparently scripted mission are hit and miss with the latest update especially DML missions which Cfrag is quite upset about. If error occurs you have to add a script Autoexec.cfg to save games or Dedicated server, which my be a security risk if you use scripted missions. More about it down below link. Id thought Id let you know. Wingflyr Apparently they (ED) decided to incorporate Changes to the behaviour of net.dostring_in() which causes issues with missions. Changes to the behaviour of net.dostring_in() - Page 3 - Scripting Tips, Tricks & Issues - ED Forums

Most of the posts in that thread you linked are from Ron from RAZBAM, and I'd take anything he's posted with a huge pinch of salt. I can only imagine how much his lawyers love that he keeps opening his mouth in the middle of the court case.

It certainly doesn't read well at all. I've long been an admirer of TFC as a warbird collector, operator, airshow organiser and Nick Grey as a fine airshow pilot etc. But, the more you read about the dealings of ED, the more it sounds like he's a bit of an asshole businessman!

Financially strained, seems a possibility, coming from this foul smelling news. Fingers crossed not the case.😦
