Hey, Stary, I was just joking, okay? Perhaps you can explain in better English and more detail how to connect and activate the new desktop?

jwrich, - you connect the TV's HDMI input (select HDMI 1, if there are more) with the graphic card's HDMI output (make sure it has one). - you then switch from "TV" to "HDMI 1" via your remote control (the button is the one to switch through the TVs modes) - you then right-click on your monitor's desktop, open your graphic card's menue, and go on "Desktop Management" (or similar); - and there you select "Create and arrange Desktops" (or however it is called in English) - you should now see your monitor as "1", and a second monitor (your TV) named "2" - now you right-click on the second and make it the priority desktop - after that, you make it "only desktop" - or find a line to deaktivate the other (monitor) That last bit is necessary to receive a full picture - you can now right-click on the (new) desktop and give it the right resolution (if it hasn't detected it already) Tamper, as I said: I'm watching it from ca. 1 Meter distance. Maybe you could still see pixels then - I can't. You'd have to retreat a little further then, I guess. Maybe with a youthful eyesight, you'd prefer a small-pixelated high res monitor. To me it works wonders - I am flying in a wide open sky, with a life-size Albatros.... What more could I want?

(Nasty nasal plastic voice, immitating original speaker:) "Yeah, we just discovered it!" Hey, you "political modder", we don't need that kind of people who only come in to make their funny remarks, okay? Huh!

So I'll triple it - whatever I must do to get the bar opened!

Seems hard to find any pics - I thought I was good at "googling", but no success...

Hauksbee, you'll be in heaven!

Nott att all, mein Herr - vee use modern techolodgy! der Dsherrman efficiency - Mmuahahahahaaa!!!

Mine is a TOSHIBA "REGZA" 37" flatscreen TV with full HD resolution. I am sitting ca. 1 Meter away from it, and I see no single pixels, but a wonderful sight-filling scenario. Since I use that, I can recognise E/A much, much earlier and better!

Robert, I guess that's what it will be like. Some pilots went from 2seaters to a fighter squadron, and when they proved very good there, they were transfered to one of the task force squadrons. Maybe they even added the way MvR did it: he had the freedom to select and ask pilots from other Staffeln. So - if you are very good in a German scout, Manfred might knock on your door one day...

No hasty wrong decisions, man - who would supply you with all the good food, whilst you do the flying?!

Ha, same I idea as I had - why not use a full HD flatscreen TV for flying! I can see everything much better, and the real-life feeling is amazing.

Aaaahhhh! That reads like balm for the soul!

Oh dear - I may have to remain grounded then...

Looking great. But no Windows 7 (32bit), as Widow said?

Barmy, Sir - not "barmey". We are not so barmy that we couldn't write "barmy" correctly. Maybe you didn't read the secret orders? We are all lurking outdoors, behind a bush, a barrel or a barn (yes, all alliterations for "barmy" can be chosen) waiting for the moment when the bugle will be blown...

Hauksbee, I have hardly any knowledge there, but I know that Galland had complained about the bad rearward vision in the Bf109. He then designed a different canopy, the "Erla-Haube" or "Galland-hood". It had less vertical struts, and the horizontal one was bent downwards towards the rear. The concept also replaced the tank-steel plate behind the pilot's head by a thick bulletproof glas plate. Not sure, but this photo seems to tell, that the later G-types had also slightly more room? The DB 605 engine had fuel injection, and the Bf109 could climb almost vertically, or even fly headover. With that climb the engine should have been strong enough IMHO. I guess what impressed Mölders as well as Galland was the turn-ability of the Spitfire.

They both must be THE icons for WW2 fighter, but I understand Widow's choice - the man is an Englishman through and through.

"Izn't itt? Rak-ak-ak-ak-ak-ak!!!! Mmuahahahaaa!!!"

- checked all ventilators on CPU, GPU, PSC? Made sure they really move? - is the memory enough? does it get very hot?

Okay, guys, I'll keep it going. Thanks, Pol, for bringing it up - you may admit that it is in better use with a Teutonic flyer.

Well-ll... To be honest I stole it from Pol; and he let me get away with it - I think because he stole it before, from some Hollywood Baron, or from Dick Dastardly? Dr.House also stole it, but we don't know from whom... Mwahahahaaa!!!

Yep. "Terrain Detail" is fine on "3" already; "Scenery Detail" on "4". No need to go higher, except if you can. Even lower it will look good. You would want to have "Aircraft" on "5" to have them top notch.

Mwahahahahaaa!!!

Guys, I really hope this is no wrong-gone "1st April joke" - me olde heart would not survive that!

Correct sheme or not, those are good jobs done, Dej! The effects both give the pictures interesting different touches. One only thought: could you still change the light green on Voss' wing more towards a pale Brunswick (non-dynamic) green? It's better in the lower, but that is still "too much spring green". If you use Photoshop it should be easy for you.
