Outstanding work your doing Herr Prop-Wasche...

Very nice skin..

Also don't forget Uncleal to put pencils in your ears and your underwear on your head...

I am like that old chap Widowmaker lack of knowledge first class idea old man... I will admit I spent yesterday trying to think of ideas but this mad thing called work kept getting in the way totally uncalled for if you ask me... Anyway I have no ideas my knowledge of WW1 is a bit vague in places I know more of the ground war than the air war...

Welcome to the Ring old Chap...

On the regards of Coffee I am under orders from the office and my boss in Amsterdam to drink coffee... none of this seeing what happens when I dont drink it... And who am I to agrue with 140 people in my office... it would be damn un-English of me...

Widowmaker old chap I am sure you have had one near miss too many... and thats just in the bar... why would we ever think that you where mad as the old hatter ??? and we know that you have been waiting patiently...

I run on hard settings... but I like a challenge and I love every minute of it... just need a TrackIR setup to make the most of it...

Possibly by using the Old Dosbox freeware but not too sure on that as I have not tried it myself...

Still need to get round to watching Cars 1 as whenever I set to watch it people decide its a good time to disturb me... And FC your right some of the Pixar stuff is fantastic though in the Cinema its great that they do a little short movie as well which is just as well crafted and harks back to when they used to show a cartoon or short movie back in the 70's... And yes I am a child at heart as it allows me to find wonder still in everyday things...

Raf_Lou that quote is priceless... and made me laugh this morning... Still not managed this feat yet but knowing me it will be done at some point...

Rules are in the First post... but come on in no rules on what you fly provided its a campaign... main rule is follow the first rules in the above link and then remember to post... But the number one rule is to have fun and share the experiences... I must admit I am just getting back into it with an Operation Desert Storm after a month or so away I will be putting posts in again shortly...

Greetings Elephant, Welcome to the madness that is OFF (in a great way)... I fly only offline in OFF and have been flying for a year and its an amazing flight sim very immersive and the support provided here is fantastic... Hope your OFF lands soon and that you enjoy your brief moments in the sky... Oh and as your the new guy I will settle for an Irish Coffee... Also as to the campaign in OFF welcome to the War in High Def where you get to participate the only thing missing is the smell of the castor oil and the smell of cordite...

Must admit I dived straight into DiD but thats how I have been flying since I started flying combat sims in 1985. Normally all Sims I have flown I have not had too many problems with but this one is outstanding in that it makes me work for my kills, and I don't have to work on how to die... the AI is quite capable at doing that one for me... Also if you have a problem the wonderful guys and girls here do a sterling job of helping you out... Also it helps with the immersion into the game as to baby steps sorry I don't know how to help with training wheels... as I approached OFF with the same mentality as they did in WW1 about 10 flights in QC in Freeflight and then off I went to the Front... and to be honest I am amazed everytime I fly no matter what the outcome. One thing I enjoy is the Paul Baum saga helps to see it from the other side so to speak and no matter for who you fly it makes it worthwhile to fly knowing if you have problems or something the wonderful people here will read it and offer you advice or if it is you providing the advice its readily read. My Thanks to the OBD guys for creating this wonderful wonderful time consuming Flight Sim... To all the rest of you Olham Widowmaker Raf_Louvert etc etc etc I could type all day and not be done my thanks to you all... May the skies be blue around you and may you fight with dignity in these virtual skies that we all inhabit

Why did you think I downloaded it came back empty with no Warsaw Pact left... possibly some of Nato Damaged... 24 SRAM's make a mighty mess...

Nice images from the China air show... nice to see something Eastern for a change...

First of all many thanks to those Skinners involved and who are willing to put together the time to do this... I raise my Hat to you fine chaps and mines the next round at the bar...

Herr Olham could you release it to everyone in the Downloads section for one I would use it happily... will make my wanderings much more fun... I could get lost with style then...

I must admit I read the books at least once a year there are certain comments that make me realise how crazy life is... now I am off for a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster

Okay I will admit I am not a modder but I will see what I can do I have a 3d modelling software pack somewhere and I have enough pictures of the FRS-2 to last 3 lifetimes...

Okay here's mine* Best 1 Empire Strikes Back (I wont vote for the Trilogy as thats 3 films) 2 Clerks 3 The Dambusters Worst 1 Star Wars 1 see above (So bad I cant remember the name) 2 Dancing with Smurfs sorry Avatar (Great Special effects but tired story) 3 Crank High Voltage Cannot vote Twilight as my self preservation gland kicked in... and I avoided seeing it thank god... * This list may change depending on mood...

No its from the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy Book and the travesty that they call the film... Part of the details on the plane ie the 42 and Fiddly Bits (the name) and my nickname Slartibartfast are all bits from the book... Ha I quote you Albatross... ala Monty Python http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_u7VGiMO0U And the aforementioned Albatross would have to wait until I was sat still long enough to hole me precious...

Holy moly first a B-1 redux and now a Tu-22 Backfire looks like this month is the month of the heavies... :clapping:

One of my favourite quotes... In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Back to the little Strutter she had a wonderful outting last night sent on a recce of some guns only problem was I lost my flight completed the Gun Recce alone... then out of the sky fell an Ennie and 4 other biplane types Rolands I think who proceeded to cause me problems all the way back to base hedge hopping all the way landed with no ammo left and myself and my gunner accounting for the Ennie and 2 of the Rolands... not a bad first day out... shame there where no witnesses and that I had a minor issue in taking screenshots... note to self must try harder...
