SATA is 6 mb/s. Each path in a PCI 4 slot is also 6 mb so your HD is now working on 24 mb/s if you support the NVMe format and all your stuff plays nice. Probably noticeable in something like DCS. In my case ... probably not

This board is just before the M.2 slot came about. PCI slots are faster data transfer than SATA and this type of drive cools better than an enclosed SATA drive = faster speed and longer life. Apparently there are adapters > M.2 to PCI-e .... still investigating..

So I have a Asus P8Z68-V mobo. My small (250) SSD is almost full. I have empty PCI slots that I could plug in an SSD. However, I think I can't boot from PCI slot SSD but I'm thinking I leave the O/S on the drive I have now, migrate games over to the PCI slot drive and run from there. Does this make sense?

Set up that old 24" monitor as a second and display it there.

There's a setting under the realism tab where you select the type of mission (single, one on one, dogfight) to start with a "warmed up engine".....

You have a personality. If that "pilot" isn't there, the show still goes on no? Lets play

hmmm. I had CH pedals once. They developed an internal short that caused all kinds of strange problems ... random reboots... on a Win XP machine I think

OK so he has a list of requirements... 1. Get a group of friends and a person willing to host an event. - I think we have that covered 2. It can be as long or as short or as organized as you want ... OK, it has to be at least a little organized. - we can manage here.... 3. Set the time period and make your alter egos in the campaign. - "characters" covered... 4. Schedule a time and fly. - what are we waiting for?

Salute sir. Beautiful stuff.

Beautiful work

Not quite sure what to make of this. I present it without comment. The story of Lancaster LM582 and its crew on the night of the 17/18th of December 1944 https://onenightindecember.wordpress.com/2016/03/22/2-pilot-pod/

All the same stuff is available in cockpit. Go to the map, open briefing, specification tab.

Agreed but knowing how to bleed off speed, how to loose altitude without gaining speed, how to abbreviate a landing are certainly skills I would consider a prerequisite to combat flying.

Landing is all about speed control. Elevator trim is your cruise control for keeping your speed in check. A little more complicated than I could explain here but on approach you should not be doing much with the stick, full nose up trim and throttle adjustment should set you down in the right spot. If you want to learn the basics I'd be happy to spend some time on landings with you. Let me know or join me on TS.

At first you're just falling out of control from engine torque , no flight surface is doing anything ... there isn't enough air flowing . Chop power, center everything and wait till it stabilizes and you can identify the direction of spin. Then opposite rudder to stop the spin, then begin to pull out of the dive gently.

Try this.... sorry about the volume... crank it up

Apparently my headset has given up, or rather the mic has. I'm looking at these: https://www.amazon.ca/HyperX-Gaming-Headset-Nintendo-Switch/dp/B00SAYCXWG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1544546435&sr=8-2&keywords=hyperx+cloud+2+gaming+headset I'm blessed with ears big enough that if I could learn to flap them I might just fly. Need a comfortable set. I'll still be on but mute ... enjoy it while you can.

Hmm. It's free content .... Amazon Prime and search for it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr-Zz5HbO7Q

Got Amazon Fire Stick a while back. I found this Russian TV series about a WW2 Yak3 squadron. The flying sequences are laughable, War Thunder rendering or something. They have 5 or 6 non-functional Yak's but plenty of old trucks and equipment, German and Soviet both. Hannomags, Opel Blitz, at least 2 PZ IV tanks, AA guns and assorted kit. At least 1/3 of the actors are women. The Yak's are towed around giving the impression of taxiing and taking off but all the details are missing. They climb into a U-2 biplane and "contact". Jump in and start rolling but the plane doesn't rock at all and no prop wash. Plane stops and guy jumps out but the prop is still spinning wildly, obviously no engine there. LOL and the subtitles... guy crashes and crawls to a trench.. Normally it's "are you ok"... here it's "are your arms and legs intact?" Instead of "dismissed" it's "you may be free". Great comedy.

Doubt this could have anything to do with the server. It's also happening with the 109. Saitek. Ghost inputs.

It's not that so much as we fought hard and long and neither one of us was able to pull the trigger. We both tried vertical and horizontal scissors, energy tactics ... both of us working so hard we stalled out a couple times. Great, evenly matched fight. Salute to the pilot.

Fought this guy a couple of weeks ago.. wish I knew who it was.

Salute! Thank you.
