Waffle,
are yuo dodging the questions? A or B?

I dont know what I am supposed to look at in the windshield frame photo. One thing I notice though, is that the inside strip seems pretty much aligned with the outside "strip". You notice that the framing gets wider towards back, right?

Still.. A or B in your opinion, and why?

Just to be clear, your correct BlauK.

I am just curious about Waffles pics.

All the best,

Crumpp

Am I just not seeing it with my browser?

Blaunk -

The angle will be the same going through a piece of glass with parallel edges. Snell's law.

And what does that give you A or B ?
Just say it

now I saw it. Btw, notice how the vertical museum window bars get much closer to each other in the manipulated view than above the armoured glass.

Waffle · « **Reply #175 on:** February 02, 2006, 11:21:25 AM »

from the solid red line, going through the glass, I would say it should continue through the glass as "A" the red dotted line, if those are the same angle as they hit the glass from each side.

Waffle · « **Reply #176 on:** February 02, 2006, 11:29:06 AM »

Anyone know what type of glass the armored glass was made out of?

They only get one life.

I'm not referring to any F/A 18 pilot, who the hell needs em in WWII simulation?
Stall is a very simple and rutine test any pilot does with any plane he flies. It is one of the very first tests one does when flyin a type of AC first time. In case you unintentionally stall, you really HAVE to know how the plane behaves.

As I said there are lots of 109's, p51's, spits flying around, go ask the pilots how the planes behave.

BTW I'll add this link for you and others interested in the actual characteristics of 109's. From the mouths of the pilots them selves:
(theres even an Stall performance report conducted by RAF Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE) Farnborough handling trials.

I am generally not a 109 enthusiast, but I'd hate to think that ANY AC would be given LESS, OR MORE performance in AH than it in reality deserves.

Since you guys like movies so much......
