delta7

Hi and welcome, squad nights for Box are 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 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 . 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 S Delta7

I won't make tomorrow as I have family commitments, good luck all

The two most popular are tactical air war and finnishpilots but both have no speedbar and no icons but good missions. I started on the finnishpilots but had to give up as I just cant spot dots without icons. The most popular with icons is DEDs official this has icons , speedbar and engine management assist and while ok does develop into air-quake mass furballs very quickly. I havnt found any popular ones with our settings which is a pity. Remember you have to switch off mods and any graphic editors to play on most servers

I should make it, bomber please

Hi and welcome, I'm sure you would enjoy our company, we mainly fly il2 battle of stalingrad series, particularly bodenplatte add on , however there is a deducted number who fly DC's. There are plenty of guys willing to help if needed.

Don't know if I'll make it ,will be last minute if I can, don't wait on me, I'll be on time for cut off or not at all

Sorry Sid don't understand your question, I found the solution on the il2 forum. There are others who had the autolevel going off when switching to bomb view and found the conflict was when switching on bomb view when on autolel

I had problems with dropping out of auto level when setting up bombing and heard others have same problem last night. What I discovered was that when you go to bombsight mode it should activate autolevel automatically so if you have put it into autolevel then went to bomb sight it confuses things. I have done a brief check and the solution I have found is go to bomb mode then switch straight back to normal and check autolevel has activated , if not toggle bombsight until it does. Once confirmed in autolevel (by just using the bombsight key) I have not had any problems. I can make adjustments and toggle back to normal view to view map then back to bombsight without issue

New pedals arrived 😃😃😃

Enjoyed my bomb run, got confused over target but no big change there 😆so don't think I hit much but looking forward to improve next mission. Thanks to Sid and crash for help and chat in mission

I should be there bomber please

Found out that my rudder pedals were not working right last night and exprired today when testing so officially dead after many years faithfull service. I have ordered a new set but unsure how long it will take to arrive so Im ghoing to try twist grip until new set arrives

I'd like transfer to a-20 as well please new pilot name Dave haggis

485th seem to be in a loop either fly around and see no air combat or get bored and attack ground targets and get plastered by flak. I understand that lack of air is a game device due to our success and probably realistic but a tad frustrating

Last time the 110 was too vulnerable, given map and objectives,easier to survive in 109

Thanks for taking on feedback and working on improvement. I'm in . Would it be cheeky to ask that fighters could take bombs too ?

I can make monday night

Sorry mate but it seems I don't have permission to view post

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

Its the only things allowed, like water is all that can be added to malt, we burn those who add cola at the stake

for the heritics who didnt believe me , I still run win 7

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 S

I would prefer icons, too many friendly kills without them.

@Colin Having had discussions and test run last night could we please have an update on Sundays scenario, map, settings, teams etc. Thanks

Good point by prof practice with gyro sights and that will help p51 spitfire 9 and Dora have gyro
