Athens Greece 8 morning crystal clear air.
I see birds 5 degrees far from the sun. If i put my finger infrond i
can see mutch closer.
If a fighter was coming from there he had to be exactly on the disk or at least 5 degrees around to be invisible.
It only deeds to up your hand infrond of the sun to see everything 2-3 degrees near.
I see it with a glass infrond of me.
I think WWII pilots had raybans 
Hades55, you are right about the "Thumb in the Sun " , and the Raybans ...My dad has told me that the Tiger framed green lenzes
sunglass were common, and easly and cheaply bought at ReXall and Owl Drug Stores before WW 2 broke out .
Major Boyington taught his BlackSheep To do the very same thing . I read about this in his book .( I have an autographed copy) . I had the honor of meeting him at VanNuys Airport, Air Show long ago.
I have flowen alittle in warbirds and have alot of time WW II trainers
( AT 6's ) in the past when I used to live near Van Nuys Airport I used to hangout with the 146 Air Search & Rescue Squadron , made up of AT 6 ande various WarBirds back in the 60's and 70's .
and the thumb in the sun worked for me too .
Paxil Try gamma adjustment... that might help.
I have removed all traces of the past Beta's and have downloaded the complete AH 2 game thismorning , and will see
if I can screw around with the gamma adjustments to the point that eyestrain isn't an issue ...... for me.
beet1e The sun seems way too big or too bright in twilight conditions. Still, I wouldn't have thought it was a quitting issue
Ya bettle, It's an issue , and a damned big one with me , I don't like it one bit , and Im gona do what ever it takes to find a way to get around "my problem " ....... Hopefully with in a day or so........... I will have a work-around figured out ...... strange thing is that in IL2 FB I can play in the whiteout-snow storm blizzards for hours without getting the eyestrain ..... from trying to watch my six .......So there has to be an answer somewhere, because to just up a fighter and fall asleep at the stick and hope nobody nails my prettythang outa the sun, I think is lame way to play . Bettle , hope to see ya in the game soon !
Prolly won't beable to activate my account and get back in the game for testing untill tomorrow when the HTC Crew is back at work ...............
I would really like to hear input from other players that are stuck with poor eyesight , ie. ( color blind and farsighted like me ) as what if anything they have found that has helped them deal with the new game settings ? !!! or not ? !
Telling me to "try sunglasses" is a joke ? right Flossy LOL ..... .............. also I know "it's better here than AW , I ve been here since we all flew in the AirWarrior Europe FR Arena the night of Dec. 7 2000 , when those rotton EA bastages turned out the lights on AW .... and have also saved all the game downloads and films of that night and others , like both operation greens with "40 MAW flying around in a goon waving the victroy flag " .....remember Flossy ? also some ingame flim of you and your squad , also of Mage and I winging in P51's that last night ........ along with PAL ..... "Good Times" ! !!
everyone .......
CHECKERS
