Sorry Arlo, I don't think they have Navy birds yet....

Here is a very cool movie to check out...

The movie can be downloaded from my website at:

It requires xvid to view the movie.
Here is the link to download it

Ahhh .. IL2 FB. Nevermind. I'll try that later on down the road. Of course ... there's also "Target:this and that" to try as well. One of the groups are working on a Target:Spain. Tax rebate time is practically here. Maybe we can live with a leaky roof a lil while longer. :D

Kinda suspected after those last two. It has that IL-2 weathered skin look to it. But couldn't, for the life of me, figure out where the weapons were hidden.

Honestly Arlo,
  I played IL-2 online for the first time on Sunday afternoon... Lets just say this... I was amazed on how well things were... No Icons, No Dar, No little radar boxes for planes... the guys I flew with fly full realisum... well as real as they can get...  You have to navigate off the earth with the compass...  Lets just say I got lost a lot!... I really enjoyed it... I think it will make a good escape from this from time to time...  I found out I need to work on my gunnery in there a lot more than in here...

I do hope they come out with some Navy birds... I will be interested on how they are modeled... compared to in here...

If you want to a short footage of me flying.. here is a link

Sorry didn't mean to stray from the topic at hand

I would like to offer a different opinion. I think this is a good way for the CT folks to get feedback. (Although I admit that some players are have not been shy about offering feedback in the past). Over time, these grades could be another factor to consider in devising future set ups.

And if nothing else, it consolidates all the whines about a particular setup into one convenient place.

I give it a C

E - you just have to see the numbers during prime time - I saw about 10 at the most.

I liked this setup as long as the local area numbers were somewhat even...  unfortunately that was rarely the case so it gets a C- .  I think adding the p40e would have helped.    I would guess adding the spit-5 would have turned things into a spit-fest rather than a zeke-fest though.       Sqrl

True.  Once again, the CT has managed to duplicate history.  Kind of cool, the way that happens sometimes.

I guess maybe a B–.

Had a chance to fly for both sides, and thought that 1v1 Zeke/Spit was a great fight.

Bottom line... I had fun. :)

With no bombers, not even a Ju88, or at lesast an A20, I'm not interested.

It gets an F in my book.
