What a coincidence! I finally went ahead and treated myself yesterday with the standard Steam version of MSFS and promptly downloaded this along with the airshow add on. Started up and took off in an Extra for a 5 minute jolly and by jove it looks incredible. Almost like being there. Just need to get VR working now, map and tweak some more controls and get exploring. On a side note, with everything that's going on at the moment, I'm not feeling much like blowing sh*t up, so this will do just fine I think. Who's up for a Dogzford virtual meet up soon?

I'm not familiar with all the inner workings but, Isn't Eagle Dynamics Swiss-based? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eagle_Dynamics

15/01/45 Adam Broadside Air: 1x Fw 190A Destroyed Ground: 1x Artillery Destroyed, 5x AAA Destroyed

Count me in

These were Arthur's thoughts, think I'll just go for the standard steam version and go from there.

Over to you @DD_Fenrir

13/1/45 Maj Sean O'Sullivan... has beed captured. Word down the wire suggests after shooting down a 190A, Maj O'Sullivan took a hit, subsequently hit the silk and landed in the lap of the Wehrmacht on the frontline.

And here is that man's freshly painted skin, get it while it's, uuhhh, wet?

Count me in

Thanks Arthur! You've answered everything with bells on there mate. It does indeed look splendid, think I might have to fire up the Steam store at the end of the month

With the sad news that Flying Legends is once again cancelled this year, I'm suggesting that perhaps we could consider one of Duxford's shows to fill the void. It's been far too long since we all got together to watch aeroplanes zoom overhead, drink a few pints and eat some curry. Whatcha think? https://www.iwm.org.uk/airshows

Perhaps I'll pop up a poll Sidly, to establish who'd be up for which date if we were to make it a defacto substitute for dangerdogz-do-legends? In all fairness, September is likely to be more warbird heavy so closer to legends in experience. I'd be happy with that.

Bugger. Just saw this on faceache. I feared this may be the case. Usually all announced by the new year at the latest. So, as I posited on team speak to some of you chaps recently, how about the Duxford June show as an alternative? https://www.iwm.org.uk/airshows/duxford-summer-air-show

I reckon you've got that Nick! Cool bird, looks like fun to fly. Lot's of respect for the firebombers

I think really, that's not so much of an issue Kev. After all, if I want realistic flight modelling I'll fire up DCS. I'm hoping MSFS will just fill that hole of taking in a scenic ride from A to B to C etc. If it looks half decent in VR of course.

A windmill too far?

Well done sir! Quite a fugly abomination isn't it?! Over to you

Thank you very much mate! That's most helpful. Should I go for Standard, Deluxe or Premium; through their store or Steam? I presume all is okay with VR now? I believe on launch it wasn't quite right was it?

A little more

Looks great! I have been seriously considering MSFS recently Sidly, just to quench that thirst for bimbling around and admiring the view. Got any tips?

Negative. Further clue in the morning.

Nope

Ooh, nice guess but no cigar. A little more...

Really sorry this happen Crash and Mr P. Despite there only being 9 of us, it got pretty busy very quickly and agree we should have just gone split comms. I think I have a track recorded during the combat, so will see if I can figure out what happened if you're in range.
