Sounds like our little fluffers may have to finally grow up and bit and learn their trade :)

Will their be a setting for joining formation if more then 1 person flying buffs.  Set aircraft on auto and they will join formation so we going to have 8 buff formation instead of 4  and other 4 trying to catch up.

Simply excellent!

Question: What about killshooter?

I see the shoot-through fuselage issue has been fixed (yay!) , but now comes the question of the buffs in the same box shooting each other.

Im just curious how this will be handled. :)

Actually, it sounds a lot like manning the bombardier position in B-17 Flying Fortress 1 & 2.  My flight career was as a nav and bombardier (radar nav) in the B-52, and I'm real interested to try this out.

Rosan Rosanadanna "What's this I hear about Bomb Sites..?



I think the changes are cool and I'm looking forward to 1.10 but wouldn't it be more realistic to just model wind and a bombsight to correct for it?

Wotan, it isn't anything we didn't want for ourselves.  Assuming we liked it the way it was before is just that....an assumption.  You know what they say about the word "Assume", right?

lol i didnt assume anything the majority of buff sorties in ah arent flown by dedicated buff squads :)

my opinion of buffs as fluffs really has no bearing on what is prefered but by how they are flown. So the only assumptions
here are made by you :) and you know what they say about the word  assume, right? ;)

The majority of fighter missions flown are by Dweebs too. Come to think of it.. we are all DWEEBS. And if a pilot claims not to be he probably is anyway. The fun part of anything new is learning it now matter what proficiciency level you are. I think this is going to add a whole new demision to the game  (for the better).

I even think a a 70 Buff low level ackstar run will be attempted right off the gitgo. I think it will be most likely be formed by the FDB's. Fatty please post film :)
