Painless

~S~ Carlos dude!!.................................. ~S~Painless

~S~ Shadow sir, I have done the profile thing AND put a 5mm thick rubber washer under the spring AND filled the upper "cup" which the spring sits in with Araldite resin !! LOL I now have "stiff slack" lmao

~S~ OK ty waldo , and yes for sure Dave , would be well keen on seeing those Films M8. Let me know how and when you want to do it, cheers!! Sod flying a Blenhem ay !!! ~S~ Painintheass

~S~ Dave and Colin, bloody brilliant scrap we had !! Its fights like that where you push your luck and are fortunate

~S~ Waldo old bean , excuse my ignorance , but what is it exactly ? ~S~ Brainless

~S~ Shadow, Looks excellent, nice to see that they are addressing the "free play" issue. I've not long bought my X52 and although I like the fact that it provides me with separate throttle and joystick (and will lock out yaw so I can use my new CH pedals) the standard of engineering is very poor. I know that this is he way they are built to a price (£75), but hell, how much slack can you put into a joystick Its way worse for slack than my old Saitek cyborg gold was at £34 !! Will be interested to "feel" the Pro model ,(excuse the expression LOL), and to see what price improvement brings with it ! ~S~ Precisionless

~S~ What a fascinating thread !! Not a topic I've ever known that much about other than watching Discovery channel documentaries on the subject. None of it surprises me in as far as the way in which the Finns were regarded. Having talked to Klinger , who as some of you know

~S~, Strange , I thought it was a clever double entendre title for a film about aircraft crash investigations with Tina Turner as host

~S~ jensen, your very bad and will come back as a Muslims flip flop in the next life !!! lmao ~S~ Brainless

~S~ Clarke , many happy returns for yesterday M8 ~S~ Painless

~S~ Shadow,

~S~ Rog, well this sim never ceases to amaze does it M8 ! This will be the second to last patch for IL2 is that right ? Really does make you wonder how B.O.B is going to be good enough to eventually supersede it ! Congrats on the house sale all going through BTW , only heard about it last night . Your pucker factor must have gone right down over the weekend AY !! LMAO. Nice one Rog. ~S~ Painful

~S~ chaps , thought I'd post this track of BadAim flying a Zero JO style !!

~S~ Carl We have a bloke at work who's nickname is "MONGO" !!!! He has no neck , is built like a cannon ball , is as strong as an ox, ex- "Royal Roofing Corps", (sod being his girlfriend !!!!) LMAO ~S~ Painless

Very nearly Happy birthday Roger dodger !! Hey 46 is nothing mate, be there myself in a couple of months and I know:

~S~ Carl , I'm sure this lady could be put at ease concerning the type of personage who would be ogling her pictures by being allowed to listen to DDz TS on any given Sunday mate !!! LMAO ~S~ Clueless

~S~ BBloke, corker !! will be sharing that one with Blue watch !! Cheers ! ~S~ Painless

~S~Chris, have tried to update my v7.1 to v7.5 exactly as instructed but it comes up with "installation failed. 1 error occured" Any ideas M8 ? ~S~ Brainless

~S~ BG, cool toys for big boys !!! I bet you have loads of fun in that new machine , bet you move a pile of dirt from one place to another and back again just for the hell of it !! LOL I know I would M8 !! Air seat mmmmmmmmmmmmm , good for enraged piles I should imagine LMAO ~S~ Diggerless

~S~ Carl, well I see only one head , two arms and two legs .Curves in all the right places ,her own teeth and hair!! There is nothing missing as far as I can see so if the lady is a fool for "British"accents and likes to have her pants "talked" off she is already in trouble if we act like wingmen and go for a swooping "loose duce" attack right

~S~ TY for the kind words.

~S~ Fine fellows, I haven't built a model plane for years much less a Spitfire MK IXc CLP !! Just thought I'd post some pics of this 1/48th Spit I've just spent 3 weeks,(on and off), building. I expect quite a few of you guys build models of various sizes including, I know, flying ones !! (too clever for me ! lol) I helped build exhibition models for 3 years in the RAF but that was a long time ago and now my eyes need glasses and my hands shake uncontrollably !! LOL Recognise the paint scheme ?? lol ~S~ Painless Mangler tip: Photos are best viewed by right clicking the thumbnail and selecting 'Open in new window/tab' At least that is hte case in Firefox as there are no scroll bars..(

~S~ Chaps , Just goes to show how much talent is out there ay ! The wife even sat down to watch it much to my surprise ! lol Thanks for the DL ! ~S~ Painless

~S~ Carl you ol' dog Dam nice photos M8 !!! didnt realise so many ladies were fitted with twin airbags as standard,

~S~ Chaps, first of all, thanks DT for a great evenings entertainment sir !! The lag issue seemed worse with all that mist about in the second mission. Would it affect lag in the same way flak does ?? Or was it just the murderous flak itself over the beach doing it ? Missions 1 and 3 were fine for me thank (goodness) !! lol Bloody close contest from what I can gather, so well done both teams for flying your bottoms off !! ~S~ Well done Colin for taking on the job of leader in the first place. Its easy to sit back and think "well I wouldn't have done it that way" but until your actually the one in the hot seat............!!! LOL
