I was short of time when I posted that. I wanted to add my impressions too. First, this is primarily about US military aviation. Lots of technical and political aspects. I've read about everything on WW2 aviation I could find but learned things here I've never heard before. I always wondered why the US had no fighters to speak of at the start of WW2. Up until about 1936 they still figured massive fleets of well defensively armed bombers was going to be the way to wage war and explains why bombing technology in general (B-17, Norden bombsight) was so far ahead in development by 1941. That idea died a quick death in Spain and left the US looking at the Bf-109, Spitfire and Hurricane and having nothing remotely of the same capability. Anyway, a great read.

Jaw drops in amazement.....

Looks great

I just started building something on the Normandy map. Sound seems to work ok even when I start it as a server.... so far.

I was installing a damper on the Crosswinds pedals today and while there I was going around checking bolt tightness. Every one of the 8 bolts holding the center pivot pedestals were loose. Only those. If you have a set I recommend checking those.

Looks more like Command & Conquer than Tank Crew and only modern tanks.... other than maybe the Greyhound in Normandy. Easy to hit targets first shot with modern tanks. Still, plenty of scenarios possible if you know how to build missions.

I do have it but haven't looked at it much. I'll do that.

Sounds like fun. I'm in

Yes, I'll be there. Hey about skins. I see their discord has a skins section. Should I get the blue skin for my planes?

Sounds great

Will be there

Ok I'll register as allies then

I didn't register yet as you have to choose a side at the same time. You can see the player count there. Suggest we go Allies Currently: Allies 513 Axis 688

I'm game to try

Discord link expired

This is your view on approach. Different angle than the brief.

A20 it is.

I think I can handle a Mossie on this one. If not a 51 for sure.

It's a bit of an awkward time for me but I could give that a try.

Absolutely fantastic. Thanks so much. Made my game playable. Before I could only see red icons if the background was black like through the canopy frame rail.

This thread has been begging for it so .... I always strive to keep mine clean and dry too.

Yeah I'm just being an old fart. Discord works as well as TS without the crashes and it recognizes controller buttons for PTT.

China spyware You think there should be 15 updates every time you start it?

A Wing Walkers server session. 4 Dogz show up to suppress an airbase. Random fight but you can see the elements of a typical intercept. Spot the target. Lead pursuit till the target is in range. Pull in behind with a touch of lag pursuit, steady sights and shoot. https://youtu.be/_W8jA5-ZU8k
