Yep, controls at the bottom back you up on that There's a hard left rudder at that point Thx, Edit: I agree Lou, as we were simo-posting

That's pretty much my thoughts too Ironically the USAS ordered 600 more N. 28; at wars end Most probably the birds in Dawn Patrol and Hell's Angels I find the wing issues a little vexing No one ever died in a N.28 wing failure Earlier Nieups and Abatri had much more serious wing failures with lower wings breaking completely off Yet of the 3, only the N.28 was spurned

Not sure if it's me and my bad eyesight ...but is the topmost AC illistraion drawn backwards?

Now there's a good idea! A fact based decision

Squadron losses are purely random Ther is no relation to your combat results Aces die on their historical dates of demise Look at it this way: If you shoot down n Ace, he survived the crash If your M8 dies, he folded her up on the runway

OK, We all do what we need to do to get OFF working I just didn't want Roger to think his PC would overheat when he doesn't even have his DVD yet Rog, 99% chance you'll be A-OK temp wise

Yep, Pol has promised us P84 many times now btw. You wouldn't be Steve Jobs now would you?

I 2nd that sentiment IMO that fact that the OFF Manager knows where you crashed/landed is the biggest chnge in BH&H Cross it and you HAVE to make it back, no matter what happens over there

It's been a very long while since I purchased TIR but I don't think you have to do anything There is nothing in Workshops for TIR Just select the default cfs3 profile in the TIR software and use that You'll no doubt want to modify it to your tastes, just save it as a different name HTH, EDIT: And btw, welcome to OFF!

I ran OFF P1 on a 1.7 GHz Machine with 512MB RAM BH&H is more complex so I'm sure it require more than my old clunker But I say give it a go on the rig you've got You've already ordered everything so I wouldn't bother upgrading the rig til you know where you're at btw. uncleal is the 1st I've heard of anyone needing an open case and an external fan HTH,

Looking real good stumpy Can't wait to see the vid Have yo been hit by any of them? Do they have to make a direct impact?

Ah yes but the Junior Members have more Stripes than the Valued Members! Anarchy will reign!!! ... ... --------------------------------- Looking Good Guys

#18 is a Fokker DVIII with Anthony Fokker stnding beside it Winner of the April 1918 fighter competition, the Fokker D.VIII monoplane was delayed by production problems. Only thirty six of them entered service during the last weeks of the war. Equipped with an underpowered engine, the D.VIII was nevertheless an excellent fighter eagerly received by the German Air Force. Dubbed the "Flying Razor" by Allied pilots, it had the distinction of scoring the last aerial victory of the war. Country: Germany Manufacturer: Fokker Flugzeug-Werke GmbH Type: Fighter First Introduced: 1918 Number Built: About 290 Engine(s): Oberursel UR-II, 9 cylinder air cooled rotary, 110 hp Wing Span: 27 ft 6.75 in Length: 19 ft 4 in Height: 9 ft 3 in Empty Weight: Gross Weight: 1,238 lb Max Speed: 115 mph at sea level Ceiling: 20,670 ft Endurance: 1.5 hours Crew: 1 Armament: 2 Spandau machine guns

Found this map on the Column5.US website Interesting to see how it compares to Olham's OFF maps

Not sure if this has been posted before There's a lot of WWI info here I recommend the Aces section near the bottom http://www.century-of-flight.net/Aviation%20history/airplane%20at%20war/splash.htm It's open to the WWI page but if you go to the root there's info on WWII, etc.

Cool Beans Lou! Thanks for being open to suggestions

carrick, that sounds like a lotta fun! Are you able to make any evasive manuevers, sideslips, climb/descend? ...or does the formation justb come apart with any turning? I've gotta try that Roland career

I think it was Sandbagger who said they had one in the works Can't wait for that sweet li'l bird!

Hi Lou Love the contest! It's a fun learning tool for us ...and I'm sure you too Might I make a suggestion? Can you hold off on making hints until say 42 hours after posting the pics? Otherwise there's not much chance of getting a 2nd shot after 36 hr's Cheers,

Sounds great I love these vids

Nice vid Hellshade! I like your passing shots and firing only when close Keep em coming M8

I'm not sure we have AI any more ...that's Rex Hannover flying those crates!

Yeah the look and the Stickie boundry need some work Sounds like CombatAce might clean this up though OTOH There's a nice 'Multi Quote' Button on each thread and alot more options for Post writing

Sure did! The 2nd group of 4 Se's dove on our 3 reforming DVII's After shooting down the initial 2, I turned and saw a wild DF, 2 on 2 Sneaking up on this gave me a big advantage and I bagged em both So with no losses, we lit the afterburners and headed home

#16 is a DFW CV From Wikipedia The C.IV had a single-bay wing cellule and was powered by a 112 kW (150 hp) Benz Bz.III. It was soon replaced in production by the definitive C.V with a two-bay wing cellule and either a 112 kW (150 hp) Conrad C.III or 149 kW (200 hp) Benz Bz.IV. Predictably, the more powerful Benz engine gave significantly better performance. The C.V's main designer was Heinrich Oelerich, and it was produced in larger numbers than any other German aircraft during World War I. About 2000 were manufactured in DFW and about 1250 licence maufactured by the Aviatik (DFW C.V (Av), designated also as Aviatik C.VI), Halberstadt, LVG, and Schütte-Lanz. The D.V and its related designs were used as a multirole combat aircraft, for reconnaissance, observation, bombing by Germany and Austro-Hungary during World War I. They were also used by the Ottoman Empire in Palestine. In the hands of a skilled pilot it could outmaneuver most allied fighters of the period. It remained in service until early 1918 though 600 were still in use by the Armistice of 11 November 1918. Most were thereafter scrapped according to Versailles Treaty in 1919.
