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

This is sad. Olham rating is higher then my credit rating :yes:

My Man. I knew that someone in the forum could add a touch of Personal History to the aircraft.

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.

I have hopes to ride in a Steerman this summer . or some other 2 winged wonder.

There is one in Santa Monica, Calif (U.S.) Its hanging from the celing . I dont know of its history only that it was a gift .

Holy &%$&, Tell us more, I havent seen any written resources on the Australian Airborne ,but I would luv to Hear or Read some.

What an Impressive Group !

OFF: Burning Coffins or Contrails over France. or The Hun in the Sun. or Over Flanders Fields: No place to Hide!

We must have someone in the Forum that has flown on one . How about it anyone ? or knew someone describe a flight on one.

Same O on Air America s C 47 ( DC 3) CIA Must have been Cheap &^%$% However, on the airliners the flight attendant 's wore outfits similar to these except the had a wings pined on Probably Delta airlines or PSA or TWA ? I cant remember. http://youtu.be/35oy2Howz_M

Makes ya kinda of wonder what does P-5 have in store ?

My Man !

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)

Speaking of Nostalgia , I can still remember flying on : C-47 ( with seats) An Air America a/c ( CIA ?) From Saigon to Da Nang , Vietnam C-130 s ( jump seats or floor. ( a really smooth ride) C- 123 Provider ( Noise very High) DC-4 ( More common name C-54 Skymaster) Alabama- Tennessee ( U.S.) ( Noise and oil leaks from the cowlings. Scary ) UH-1H Helicopters, UH-1B OH 58, OH-58A

Tanquillo: I hope to get into R/C this summer ( depending on taxes ) I look forward to trying to build a 2 winger after learning the basics.
