If it can't be turned off Mike maybe you will never see it anyway. Have you seen it so far? Prolly not. Maybe it was being transported to another airfield and was not secured. Just one of those things maybe.

Not quite the Nazca plain but interesting. Might mean something the alien invasion force. Who can say? While flying over blighty I had a chicken eye open for crop circles but none so far. I've not seen a ufo either but they 're out there for sure. Thought I saw a ufo, turned out to be some guys motor.

Ya did good Stump. Thanks FRO8769. So good of you to share your hard work.

Viel Dank Herr Olham, Diese gestaltung ist ganzlich fur mich. Prost

In that case where's my frickin' Gotha bombers? Huh? No more excuses. Oh, by the way, do you guys know Seven of Nine: Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Something or Another? She's hot!! Model that for me. Ye Borg, ye!

There's a nice set of screenies from the new patch posted over at Sim Hq. Nice bit of promo.

I "ope the bloody 'ell 'e see's the new patch first!

'eer ya go mate. http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/2837988.html

Hit B for brake.

Give my regards to Lord Nelson if you would mate!

I must say you've done it again Homeboy. I like your idea and it's practicle. Me and my moron chip don't understand one thing. How do I get this to print nicey nice on my printer? Is there a file you made for us or do you expect me to hashout my own version? Hmmmm? Just wondrin' I can if I must may take 4 or 5 days but I might get 'er done. Wait a minute the moron chip cooled off long enough for me to right click and save picture as "CampaignForm". Thanks again Homeboy.

Would it be too late to have a pilot in each plane we fly?

Just wanted to welcome you Iscin. May you get your disk very soon and get it loaded and operational asap. Should you have any problems or questions someone= anyone smarter than I in this forum will be very happy to lend a hand and get you airborn. I look forward to reading about your OFF experience and impressions. Best wishes, Jim

Welcome to our ranks Fawlty. I installed over P2 with nary a problem. Vista 32 Nvidea 9300m. I was not modded though. You are in for a new experience when the disk arrives.

Your Nupes were lighter and more agile than the Spad VII. So differenet tactics for flying and attacking. Boom and zoom, hit and run, maintain some altitude. Might not seem like a logical progression in aircraft developement but that's historicly how it went down. Motor technology I think was the determining factor. More horses and speed reduced the nimbleness. At least for some and for awhile. The DVII was so good because it had the horses and yet was fairly nimble.

Lou, since you mention the chair, again, and as how you live in the great state of Minnesota I can say that Target and Wal-Mart stores have variations of the chair. Also remember to bear in mind the Goodwill stores and maybe paying $100 less for the same thing. Some of the chairs available now are wireless. Unless you are 12 years old you want a chair that has a pedestal and armrests are nice. Perhaps a handy fella could easily figure a mount or base to raise up one of the models that sits on the floor. One last point when shopping for a game chair.. frankly some of them are uncomfortable and lack proper back lower lumbar support. So ya might want to sit on it before spending the big ones.

Oh sure he always flew on the level didn't he. Why would he get that tri-wing twitching about and upset his breakfast?

Olham, so you resented the C/O in that old game? Sounds like a good immersion factor to me. Seems many C/o's were unpopular with the men. Well at least according to hollywood.

Dang! Look at that detail.

I'm happy for you Lou. That's the one bit of working kit I'm missing at this point. Enjoy, cheers!

Oh sweet! She looks nice. All that visibility. Thanks posting the pics Pol.

I wrote this for another thread but then I did not want to go so far O/T. It covers something I've mentioned before so please forgive. Here I go again. Sound of the wind and other sounds are amplified by feeling them in a rumble chair like I use. You don't have to even run it loud. I hear what you guys hear but I feel what you guys don't. A force feedback stick is immersive if not really representative of real life it does increase your sensory inputs. A FFB stick may affect my accuracy but I'ld rather have the sensation it provides than not. So a rumble seat, game chair, Butt Kicker what ever you might call it increases the sensory inputs immensely and more true to life than a FFB stick. So, you hear Archie barking all around your rickety assed crate and your engine maybe takes a piece of shrapnel and starts to run rough, you know how that feels-anxiety, oh bloody 'ell, imagine that you feel the effects of this. The percussion of the closest Archie bumping your wire, stick and canvas bird about. Your steady humming and smoothe vibrating engine suddenly lurching, coughing and spitting with you praying the vibration doesn't totally stop because when it does, she's dead. And you? Well I wish I could have all of you over to my domicile one at a time to see for yourself. It may not be for all. But in my ever so humble opinion you just don't have a virtual WWI cockpit without this. Complements OFF BH&H very nicely I say. My best to you and thanks for reading, Jim p.s: please don't start showing up unannounced

I got that idea from the sim too.

You guys are so nice to give me ideas. Sounds cool.

Oh believe me, you have no idea how sick I am, hehe.
