I flew the K-4 a bit and found the constant engine failures to be tiresome.


109 you need to remember to set the governor to auto in your start up.  (same for DCS and il2 clod) it's a little black switch on the left under the throttle by magnetos.   it is the only thing to remember engine wise.
rads set to open and you can throw it around easymode especially with WEP.   you will 'vent' white coolant when you breach operating temperatures.  Usually will only ever happen hanging on your prop at zero airspeed.   I agree there should be some after mission clues as to why the engine failed otherwise your always second guessing what happened.   Same reason I don't like flying the P47.    Only stick time and hours can you know your ride properly.

Wot ho Bruv. Thanks I didn't know that. I'll have another do in January I can have another two week trial then. I got on well with the Mosquito. I was surprised some of my post-stall manoeuvres worked there too. Those are my favourites.

Because coming in repeatedly to crap on the game is a real benefit.
So you think encouraging players to just leave Aces High helps with player retention?  :rolleyes:

Encouraging A player, I went back read his comment and it was addressed to a single player. His comment was spot on, that he continuously crap's on this place and pretty much runs a recruiting campaign for DCS and other games. I'm trying to see where either of those help here? Addition by subtraction is a thing.

So, your saying that if you played another flight sim game you would change your callsign?

Mixed. The picture will get me all their attention, but when they read the name it's all just "Fix the collisions! Why are the .50s nerfed? Get rid of ENY!" all the time  :uhoh

For me that's a yes. And I'm just an ordinary guy. No way I would play under "Hitech" if I was him and just wanted to play another game in peace.
