TROOPER117 Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 You did right Rick... when there is a mad melee going on, stay out of it... get back to the drome, have a drink, warm up and wait to see what the head shed cook up for you next time! Quote
Rick Rawlings Posted August 23, 2023 Author Posted August 23, 2023 Every time I want to get out, they keep dragging me back in! Quote

+Polovski Posted August 25, 2023 Posted August 25, 2023 Guys in the with regard to brightness you can always change brightness, contrast, or gamma on your NVidia settings (or AMD) - or on your monitor to help. 1 Quote
VFC_Baxter Posted August 26, 2023 Posted August 26, 2023 You can also change season and time of day. Quote
+Polovski Posted August 26, 2023 Posted August 26, 2023 For sure. We will also look into the possibility of allowing a small adjustment to the settings for the Expansion. Quote
TROOPER117 Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Nice patrol that one... I liked it that you stayed as top cover while the rest of the flight had a go at the two seater... that landing at the end though I was holding my breath as you threaded the needle! Quote
Rick Rawlings Posted August 27, 2023 Author Posted August 27, 2023 I know, I got monologuing instead of losing speed like I should have...well, at least it won't be on YouTube forever to embarrass me...I mean, they'll have to go out of business at some point.... Quote

TROOPER117 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Long before you got hit I was thinking, ''where are my flight?''... flak all around you, then you got bounced by a very seasoned two seater ace ''von Unschlagbar'', I kept thinking ''time for home mate''. Then you got hit!... those little messages kept popping up, ''you are loosing blood'' and then, ''fly to nearest friendly airfield'', I thought, ''better leg it mate'' ... but no, you went and shot up the airfield (hero). lol!, pushing your luck, this won't end well kept crossing my mind... but blow me down, you made it back! I'd have sacked it when my flight disappeared and I was the only flak magnet Quote
Rick Rawlings Posted September 3, 2023 Author Posted September 3, 2023 Heh, that's why you are the trooper and I'm only Rick Rawlings! I have been hit at 95% several times and even though you have the losing blood message, I've never seen it go down. I think it represents a superficial wound. I take it as the pilot would recognize that while he just got his bell rung, he's not actually seriously wounded. You'll notice I didn't stick around to finish off Monsieur von Unschlagbar, however! 1 Quote

Rick Rawlings Posted September 23, 2023 Author Posted September 23, 2023 We've made it to #13! Will Rick Rawlings survive or will he finally fall before the guns of his enemy? To tell you the truth, I kinda forgot myself, it's been a while since I made this... 1 Quote
TROOPER117 Posted September 24, 2023 Posted September 24, 2023 Well, you survived, you got a new aeroplane and a new kill first time out with it... good show! Quote
Rick Rawlings Posted September 24, 2023 Author Posted September 24, 2023 Thank you! I am always ambivalent about the move to SPADs because I love diving in with Nieuports and "Planning ahead" and "Thinking things through" are not terms often associated with Rick Rawlings, but that is the kind of flying the SPAD seems to like! Also, the AI seems to suffer less from the Albatros lower wing weakness than a human would, so diving away isn't always as viable as it might otherwise be... Quote
Rick Rawlings Posted September 30, 2023 Author Posted September 30, 2023 Number 14! Or as like to call it, double(half a dozen plus one)! Quote
