Thick layer of paint just fixed all the leaks ... (I'm pleasantly surprised about how them colors worked out: I just picked the only glossy Red Humbrol , and the only glossy White Humbrol I have, and there ya go, a perfect match!)

Training: Wingman Tactics - Who'd Be Up For That?
FoolTrottel replied to FoolTrottel's topic in IL-2 Sturmovik: 1946
Rgr... Whenever Ovy's around when I'm around, we'll wing up, fighters, bombers, bait... whatever... Add some Painless to the mix, and there you are, a three ship Bi(e)g(o) Wing! -
Just finished a good 'scrap' on our server, all on me own... Took off from Gravesend, in my trusty old beaten up Hurricane. Steered south, and climbed, climbed, climbed. Up to some 27600 ft. So, near English point, radar reported a raid of Ju87 's was heading for like Canterbury. I steer towards them... loosing altitude, and going 'fast' ... lol Just close to Canterbury I caught up with them, to find they were covered by 110's. As the 87's were diving already, I decided to kill some 110's. So I did! Could get like one B&Z attack in, but after that, energy advantage had kinda gone. Hurricane for teh win! In the end, I think I got four of them venting, I took some hits from their rear gunners.... So, ran out of ammo, broke off, luckily, they all appeared to have an acute case of 'Heimweh', and they all kept running east. I landed at Gravesend... The score list showed I got 2.00 kills. Like, I always do prefer DD_Gits around me, but this was a good one for a lone_wolf scrap!

There gunnery targets are cool. If you shoot them up, the do get 'destroyed', their color changes from white to greyish: Now I did change the weather, I thought I took out all of the wind... yet the sock at Gravesend is pointing East, and when taxi-ing Southwards, I had to keep on kicking the rudder left to keep the a/c heading where I wanted it to!

Sorry 'bout that Todd! The session today was from 14:00 - 16:00 GMT. Preparations are being made to announce the next session in the banner on the forums... -
At the same location as the bombing target, I have now setup six targets for gunnery practice: The arrow is pointing to the East, so you better come in from the West, diving down heading East. (And go "TakkeTakkeTakkeTakkeTakkeTakkeTakke") Also, changed settings to Light Clouds. Set start time to 9 AM, so it will run untill 6 PM ... for some extra atmosphere ... Note: Changes will appear next mission rotation ...

Them industrial buildings are basically butt ugly, yet they do make a nice object in a cool picture with all that blue stuff around them ...

Yes, it's only one example, but why doesn't somebody just hang up? Arguing? Yes, if you define an argument as two people exchanging virtually nothing else than sentences with the word F**K in each and every one of 'm, or even multiple times using that, repeating eachother... yes, then this an argument. But, where's the funny part of it? I do not get that.

Well, you are missing out on 1'48 of two guys basically exchanging rude words .. can't make anything else of it.

So, if I try and build a big DF for Battle of Britain mission thingie, which planes are the most suitable fighters to use on the Red side? Currently flyable: Squad Base A/C 56 Hawkinge Hurricane MKIIa 54 Hornchurch Spitfire F IIa 54 Rochford Spitfire F IIa 65 Manston Spitfire F IIa So, not really looking for exact historical accuracy, rather for best gameplay/historical balance... So, as much fun to fly, yet not the 25lba stuff ... For Blue, I just thrown in like everything it's got. For now, it will be Red only for Humans... (Oh, and it may take a long while before it's done, and once done, chances are it runs for half a day, and probably will be unplayable) Thanks!

Oh, them gaps! Yeah, well... Trailer was also built from wood, painted in silvery/metal color.

Submarine? WTF? If anything like it, it's only half a U boat! It's a very nicely built wooden very speedy speedyboat! And the trailer is scratch built as well, apart from its wheels...
