Post by: ReVo on November 11, 2013, 02:27:24 PM: Clearly this is a long overdue addition to the German ..ehm, planeset. We've known for years that the Germans had multiple operational squadrons of fire breathing dragons but HiTech has simply refused to add them due to his bias against German aircraft. Now with the release of this historical footage he will have no choice but to give us what is rightly ours. :rofl

Post by: Brooke on November 12, 2013, 12:10:29 AM: I'm working to find the flight-test data.

So far, I'm having problems finding C_L vs. AoA -- any help there is appreciated. Also, I found one source on critical mach. Dragon enthusiasts will likely complain that the dragon sheds parts at too low a speed, so if anyone has more sources there, it would be good.

We definitely want them for scenarios, though, and are already working on a scenario based on the historical engagement in the movie cited by Waffle.

Post by: Beefcake on November 12, 2013, 12:28:13 AM: I'm worried as to how HTC will model the dragons fire breath. Will it be explosive bolts or a napalm effect? Also will we have to RTB and land on the pad to rearm or can we just go to the nearest town and eat villagers to refuel?

Oh and Brooke save me a B17 will ya?

Man.... and you just had to get in there with that little detail to undermine a historical movie.... !!!!! Everything else was spot on !!! :)

Absolutely!

The scenario design is taking shape nicely. Look for "Lair of the Dragons" scenario sometime in the first half of next year.

Post by: DREDIOCK on November 12, 2013, 01:48:43 PM: Clearly those dragons are undermodeled and should have been easily able to cause the ponies to overshoot simply by tucking in their wings and dropping

That film is as historically accurate as Redtails was. Same writer/director team?

Luft-Dragons will just get the same feedback K4's do now: "It flies like a UFO, but I can't hit anything with it."

Funny....Michael Wacha has a pitch like that...

:bhead

And how on earth do the actors grit their teeth long enough to get through the shoot? "So, OK, I'm upset because my best bud just got shot down by a Nazi dragon, and I'm, uh, trying to tell his girl, and uh,

o jeez just gimme the bong again."
