Question...are those drop tanks on the TBMs in the third pic?

Would be great to have those in-game.

It's a goliath remote controlled bomb used by the Germans. It was controlled via wires. The idea was to guide it toward the enemy and explode it. It wasn't too successful as once seen it was easily knocked out and if the control wires were cut, it was useless.

American markings and identifyers, likely painted the bright color also by americans so that they could test it and fly it while avoiding friendly AAA incidents.

You can't see it in that picture but the plane's shadow on the ground kills the effect.

That depends on how high you are, the shadow might not be visible.

The one in the left wing is a drop tank and the one on the right wing looks like a radar pod.

I remember a while back someone else posted some of these same pics and torrent info, only that person was hounded by the folks on the BBS. Amazingly that isn't happening again.

Why were they hounded Todd? As my post only usually get #rule14 or the grammar Nazis sometimes for good reason.

The torrent is easy to find (2000 world war pictures in BT or others will find it)

Most of the pics i added had no info but a heap do have the info of when it was taken and what it is.

Why do they attack half the people on here like they do??? I have no idea.

The main thing was the fact that torrents were mentioned as it is file sharing and considered illegal sometimes.

I myself have had this particular torrent for sometime now, I just havn't shared any of the pics because of the way they treated the last person.

Todd,

I can only attribute a statement as ridiculous as "torrents are evil - they are all used for piracy" to that of a college educated idiot that can't think for themselves. A 6 year old that has been around for awhile knows that it is a dual use technology.

Most games we download are swarmed (i.e. DCS Black Shark, etc) rather then FTP or HTTP. Its a fail over robustness of the technology that you just cannot ignore when needing to distribute large amounts of data.

Agreed, definitely ridiculous, but on the part of the accusers.  Likely reportable on this forums too for a couple rule violations (off-topic trolling/flaming and borderline #14 if they drag legislation/law into the discussion).  Paramount to one saying we should ban computers from all workplaces because they can be used for p0rn.


Fantastic photos btw, thanks for sharing!
