Air raid in progress.
@Jabo; I suspect next sale will be Thanksgiving weekend at the end of this month.
@Crash; I'm sure you can not put flaps on a rotary as there is no "toggle flaps" command. It's got to be a button press of some sort I think.
I've not really played about with the hud as I like to get rid of all the stuff on the screen as much as possible. I know there is some sort of mini map available but I've never used it. I use the main map a great deal as it's vital for navigation over western Russia. The online technique is to have a good look at your six, note your heading and engage level auto-pilot. Then you bring up the map and see if can match up the landscape features you see out of the cockpit.
And do a lot of guessing too.............................
Oh yeah, the hud. According to the devs having the hud on accounts for 42% of your gpu's effort in running the sim. They only found this out recently. To get rid of it press H.
