Defcon  :neener:

Your 38's are targets!

Very pretty targets, one of such targets I donated a months allowance to my museum for the cause of a rebuild and have got a pic of it



But nevertheless, they still are very big airframes, and their engines are perfectly spaced for a Spitfires convergance.

My allowance paid for an ammo box and belt, seen in the gun mounting, the first one from the right.

Don't think FR would be an issue...I could play FS2004 fine with all those clouds and contrails w/no studders fine on my old laptop...512mb ram, single core Pentium M.

You might enjoy some of the pics in this thread taken during work on that plane. Wish the game had a 38H too. :)

 :aok ONLY if able to turn them off. I dont want to engauge 20 cons at 25k and have my system take dump cause I couldn't render.

Would make finding a bomber easier.
Forgot who said this while trying to take a base, but the quote goes like this. "I cant help you with ack, Im not in attack mode" This is with only 2 ack up in the town while troops were there, waiting. The rest of the town was down.

Here is a good one.

This photo was taken from a B-17 crew member, a friend of Jake's. The 'single' contrails in the center of the photo are enemy fighters attacking the B-17 formation. The 'double contrails' belong to P-38s from the 82nd FG, engaging the enemy planes.
