Ack was the word for A in the English phonetic alphabet in use in WW1...ack beer charlie don etc. Hence ack-ack =AA=anti aircraft. -
I have reset the frame rate in CFS3 cfg from 30 to unlimited but in game it still runs at a steadt 29.90. Any clues what I did wrong?

New TrackIR5 Profile - smooth, but still quite immediate
hood replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
That is excellent,Olham.So much better than the old one I had botched up.It is remarkable what a difference it makes in combat.It feels almost self tracking.Many thanks. -

Yes Carrick,I daresay that would describe it pretty exactly.Our 9th Division which formed the other axis of the attack made an authodox amphibious landing a few miles north of Lae. Cheers
-
Hi Carrick, We were not what was later known as Airborne troops in the British army.We were just an ordinary infantry division {7th Aust Infantry Division]It was just that in this particular campaign we were solely supplied and transported by air as there were no roads in the area.Through the attack on Lae and later operations in tje Markham and Ramu Valley operations there was no transport other than jeeps and native carrier parties. Best regards.

There was a gap in the Owen Stanleys some miles wide not far out of Moresby.I remember the peaks were higher than our formation as we went through.It must have been a real death trap in bad weather.They are still discovering wrecks occasionally.I take my hat off to the boys who were doing the trip on a daily basis for months at a time.
-
Hi Bullethead, No we weren't paras, just airborne.A US para regiment jumped the day before and burned off a strip for us and we landed in a much more dignified manner.Though some Aussie Gunners jumped with the US paras {if I remember correctly it was the 503rd Para Regiment].Some of the gunners did not have any practice jumps at all. Cheers all

My first flight was in a C47 over the Owen Stanley's for the first Australian airborne attack on Lae ,New Guinea i943
