  1. In real life, such a task would be assigned to either fighter bombers like the FW190 or dive bombers like the JU 87 as they would be much more accurate against smaller targets and less vulnerable to AA fire.
  2. Agree with all the above Sheriff. If you haven't got it already I'd get Flaming Cliffs 3. $25 in the sale? Bargain!
  3. Hello Mr. Crashes. I think going back to first principles would help; to keep out of the way of AA fire fly higher. AA accuracy obviously decreases the further away the target is. I'm no sort of expert but I seem to recall that it was a basic Luftwaffe design requirement that all twin engine aircraft had to be able to maintain altitude on one engine? Certainly you can on the HE 111. Firstly, make sure you have ditched any bomb load. Set the working engine to combat power and open water radiator and oil cooler shutters on that engine to at least half open. On the dead engine close the radiator shutters fully and feather the prop. This will help reduce drag. Now concentrate on flying smoothly and steadily. Use rudder trim to compensate for the loss of an engine. If you have to make a turn, make sure it is a gentle one and only turn into the good engine. ie; make sure the working engine is on the inside of the turn. Try to climb gently if you find yourself below 500m and keep a steady watch on the engine temperatures on the working engine as combat power is only available for a limited time. Hope this helps.
  4. Er......we don't you know. Not perhaps a very known fact but we have the ability to nuke the world right up to the very moment Washington switches off our leased Trident missiles. In the near future, are we really going to have the hundred billion+ in the coffers to renew our Trident fleet?
  5. Argentina? Surely not. Didn't we build RAF Mount Pleasant to deter them? At a cost of £500m thirty years ago. btw; I spent a week in a bivvy on Mt. Pleasant a long time ago. It's not much of a mountain and it wasn't very pleasant! Infact, it must be one of the few, wild places that have been improved by having a major military base built on it.
  6. I still don't understand what we've got these carriers for. Are we going to take on China? Is it to ensure we retain a seat on the Security Council when we become merely a small island off the coast of NW Europe at the end of next March? Is it because the RAF got a new but already obsolete fighter and now it's the navy's turn to get a new toy? Defence spending? The last bastion of state socialism in the western world!
  7. If they've got money to spend or money to launder we seem to be a useful idiot for anyone at the moment.
  8. Wots he got to do with any of it? Defence procurement in the UK has always been ludicrous
  9. We've got the Turkeys!
  10. Good stuff FT Right at the end, theres a little bump, I look around and.....yep, I've chopped Sid's propellor off, Doh!
  11. It ain't gonna be no masterpeice, lol! That looks pretty good to me watching on a 15" screen laptop. Haven't you got a high-res. screen Kev? I think that makes a real difference. I was editing stuff together with Windows Movie-Maker which is perfect for an idiot like me but it really mangles the quality. Hopefully will get a chance to put something together tonight.
  12. No sound track, just an example of what skinners are producing for the P47 https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/28332-szelljr-skindeposit-®-™-©/?page=21 https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/41081-p-47-d-skins/ https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/41118-raps-p-47-thunderbolts-help-yourselves/
  13. From tonights shenanigans
  14. Well now I know; Muddy Waters soundtrack = verbotten. Jacky Wilson = no problem...........perhaps.
  15. How about this? Seem to be having a P 47 'thing' at the moment
  16. Ahhhhh.......I see. Sorry chaps, my little video seems to have fallen foul of copyright and Article Thirteen. I wonder if anyone outside the EU can still see it...........? I'll have to do an EU version.

    You are right to be disturbed by this.....
  18. No it hasn't
  19. Yep, 'our' Jedi. He formed the original group that came together to produce the Viggen too. At least, thats what he told me when I ran across him on a BoX server a couple of months ago.
