Well, Chrsmat, you may also look at the sticky thread "command key chart" above to find all you need. When you find it hard to follow opponents (which it sometimes or often is!), you may also use the "target cone", the yellow brakets and the "labels" for identification. And you can set the difficulty lower in "workshop". Don't bother about the hardcore simmers - some day, when you got better, you can raise the difficulties, and leave some of the helps out. I don't know, how old you are and if you could get used to something like TrackIR 4Pro. That would give you an incredible overall view, once you got used to it.

RedDog, I wish you a good growing kill tally for the future. Be careful with your wingmen, protect them and bring them home - and you will see, it is so much greater than it already was!

Yes! All of your flight. I often have four wingmen, and I write them all in there. Always! And a typical line in the claims report would read: 1 SPAD13 Craft from Esc.82 hit and destroyed at 12h26, southeast of Vauxcere airfield.

Yes, I knew. On my field, even most of the parked planes wear my "White Eagle" skin. Very comforting.

Red Dog, you can and should write ALL your wingmen/flight members in there - that grows your chances, and it works. Very important: you must bring them wingmen back home alive. If they die on the way, you won't have anyone to witness.

Yes - switch the TAC ("radar") to "aircraft". Then you 'only' have to switch through them. I think it's done by pressing "T", you can switch through all the possible kinds of target. For ground attacks you must change again. Press "esc", and then choose "controls" - there you find all the things you like. You can "add assignments" there, and so put some important orders on buttons of your stick. I recommend to you, to read UncleAl's "Tips and cheats" sticky thread. This and so much more is in there.

The "Mad Skinner" looks at the clock - oh my god; half past nine; I haven't eaten a decent meal, nor have I shaved; and the worst - I haven't made even one flight in BHaH today! Now I'm beginning to get a feeling for how Paarma, Makai and the other skinners must have felt during the final "days of duty" for BHaH. Here is my Albatros "Feuervogel" (Firebird) was inspired first by Herr Prop Wasche/"Taffy", who wanted a plane painted like a bird. Thinking of some special bird, Cameljockey came to my mind with his "Leutnant Feuervogel". And so this extremely painted Alby came to life. It's for you, CJ and "Taffy". More pictures of the Firebird, and other designs ( "Wespe" and "Haifisch") see "skinner's department". Tomorrow, I will try to finish two or three more, but I'm not sure, how far I'll get. Oh, and Pol: I don't usually dive like that! (Lol!!)

AROTH - you just put the skin here: CFS3 Over Flanders Fields > campaigns > campaign data > skins Remember how it's called, and then chose a plane of that type, and that skin for it. Of course you must "unzip" it first (Lol!)

Hahaha!!! You are the living example, that the English must have invented the humour, Widow! Or at least developed it full size.

Drinking Absinth in the cockpit of a Fee - the nerve, this man has! No, I never had that stuff; and you saw what it did with Johnny Depp. After he drank it in "From Hell", he made these screwed up pirate films (well, the first one was alright). In Germany, Absinth was called the "Green Fairy", by the way. Yeah, Widow, with Bullet you always got a good laugh, and something to think about. An artillery man, in a WW1 Fee, drinking Absinth and dreaming of Mata Hari, reciting Latin wisdom (Lol!)

Well spoken, Widow - now we're on the last miles to the finish, and I also have two or three, which I would have liked to finish. I'll dee how far I can get tomorrow. Today, I got the "Firebird" almost done; also a Seefrosta "Haifisch" and a "Wespe" (Wasp). On the last two, I could use the shark mouth, you sent me with the Pfalz - thanks again! For me, it would be hard to judge; but if I won't make it , I'll carry on doing skins - it's great fun!

Bullethead: It's even got an incense burner mounted just by your right shoulder. I find that a bit gauche, though, because it clashes with the rest of the decor. Still, the fumes from it are a nice pick-me-up when I'm sideslipping in to land after a couple of hours at high altitude. And the top is detachable for use as an absinthe spoon. Are you sure, you're in a regular SPAD there, or does it belong to a French opium dealer. Bullethead: You sesquiplane drivers with your tiny lower wings are spoiled. I hope they break off on you That wasn't nice to say. The German planes really have a very good overall view. Worth more than a posh cockpit (although I envy you for the inbuilt central heating). But what can a pilot know about good vision, who only flew the Allied planes mostly, were they regard an attic window as progress (Lol!!!)

Wels, didn't you know, that ALL the skins in the contest/sjkinning section are for free download? Go here and grab, what your pilot's heart desires. The Firebird/Feuervogel is not yet ready, but will be placed in there tomorrow. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...amp;showcat=351 And I'll feel honoured, when you'll fly it!

Here are some "last minute" skins. More pics and report at the "skinner's department".

Wow, a Zeppelin kill - great shot, Widow! Were did you meet that monster? Bullet, go on with that "art work" - perhaps you could get famous (Lol!) But why not make an Andy Warhol style Camel?

Bullethead: Too bad about your pretty white Albatros. How long before you can get another one painted up? For the skinning contest, I made so many now, there's plenty to choose from. And I'm working on three more, on the last minute.
