  1. I have to disagree with Bullethead about BoB II . As it was released , It was Buggie, ( in fact , I threw it in my closet) but Modders have worked on patches to correct and make it a playable game. In addition, They are currently making another mod for for it ( Ref: Forum over at Sim Hq.) . The game is still not as playable as OFF but Modders are still working to smooth it out. Otherwise , I agree with BulletHead 's statement Cliffs of Dover: I don't have that game because u need a Steam account to play. Plus, It needs a lot of work by developers and Modders that care about the subject matter and the final product. Maybe in a few years. The Other WWI Flight Sim: I have it for the Eye Candy and play it once in awhile ( Kinda like watching women ) However, the Campaign is nothing to speak of, and the Multi player brings questions to mind. For example, A Camel uses its wings to break apart another a/c 's wings then flys on. , Or an Albatros D-5 using its wheels to destroy the top wings of an enemy and flys on and lands with no problems. Perhaps because there's no real penalty for Ramming , U get rammed a lot. Granted no big things but enough to @#%% u off. Just my 2 Cents worth. Olham: I am in agreement with Olham's statement about OFF. It is a Must Have WWI Flight Sim

    My only Paratroop story: An over heard conversation between 2 men passing time in airport terminal . Both men were taking about the Service. The young man said that he had 5 jumps under his belt. The older man said that He had only 1 jump : Normandy.

    Hey Widowmaker, what was it like on board the Bristol in flight ? For example, On board Treats ? Airliners 707 and 747 used to pass out dinner, peanuts, booze. On the C-54 I only got an Apple and a 7 up . On the current Airbus U bring your Sandwich unless flying 1st Class then they give u a Sandwich and Drink. ( difference in price was 650.00 U.S.) of course u board and off plane 1st.

    I had a ride in a Cessna 172 also up by the Artic Circle ( My 1st wife was in the back with me and she puked. Not an enjoyable experience .) Freedom Bird was a 707. Later had a Ride on a 747. 3 Years ago went back east ( Calif to Noth Carolina ) on a B 330 AirBus ? ( and it was a Bus people brought everything on board except live Chickens)
