+Olham Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 This is a question to Winder. My pilot with Jasta 15, in April 1918, ended up the last 3 or 4 flights with something, which I thought were mid air collisions. But, as he was diving after a SPAD each time, I'm beginning to wonder, if the lower wing of my Albatros D Va might just have broken? Would it look like a midair collision for me? Would there be no warning, that the wing vibrates too much?
+Polovski Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Yes :) Diving as fast as a SPAD not a great idea in the Alb.
+russouk2004 Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 The Albatros was renowned for shedding lower wing in a dive...
+Olham Posted March 18, 2009 Author Posted March 18, 2009 I knew that, off course. Only thought, there would be some warning then? Cause I can't "feel" the plane.
+Polovski Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 Well if you have not turned off warnings and messages you would see the damage to wings, or G stress warnings (creak noises too).
+Olham Posted March 19, 2009 Author Posted March 19, 2009 No, Parky. I got a HOTAS Cougar, but then I'd have to fly with rudders, which I have tried out, but found almost impossible so far (perhaps need adjustment?) So, I returned to my THRUSTMASTER T.FLIGHT for now. I don't want to try something NEW all the time; I'd like to ARRIVE somewere, and get to grips with fighting planes. Pol, you must be right - I may have switched the warnings off accidently in CFS3 config. Thanks.
