Люди добрые, помогите тупому. Сел осваивать аппарат Су-25Т. Хочу научиться садиться при кроссвиндах. Но никак не могу записать ролик. Какую кнопку жать? Перерыл все настройки, посмотрел мануал к ГС - нигде не нашел заветной кнопки...

My extremely limited simming time this year has been dedicated nearly exclusively to Lock On. But sometimes you have to expand your horizon a bit, and fortunately I had some opportunities to check out a different kind of flying earlier this year... As you can see from my look, I was a bit sceptical at first (probably heard too many "most realistic ever" claims already...). The two-seater instructor mode proved pretty helpful I have to say; the start already was quite rough and turbulent. Graphics were incredible; yeah I know some people say "graphics don't matter" but this was really breathtaking. Incredible ground detail here (cockpit reflections may be a bit overdone though). View system was very intuitive, but somewhat limited - this is about the max angle I achieved when turning the head. Damage model was also pretty detailed - note the canopy crack in the lower area. Some AI planes chasing each other here (four of them actually, have fun spotting them all ;)). Nice detail level around the airport - this is already the descent for the landing approach: Keeping the airport in view (padlock mode): ...and just a few moments before touchdown (landing perpendicularly to the runway on the grass; forunately no instant explosion here ;)): Overall a damn fun ride - actually had three of them this day, the first two with this pilot (who was a priest BTW, can't hurt I thought ;)) and the last with a much younger guy who had a slightly more "dramatic" style of flying :) I know I'm not the first armchair pilot to finally finds his way into a real cockpit, but I can only repeat what other people have already said many times: it's more than worth it, great by itself but also quite revealing when you compare your standard flight sim experience with it. This was, apparently, a glider and as such not totally comparable to neither jet nor WW2 sims, but still finally gave me some insight into what "flying with your butt" really means :) Especially the start was really a rollercoaster ride; even though I had expected exactly that, I was still looking frantically for something to grab and hold tight (not that easy btw: the stick, the flaps lever, the canopy handles and for sure the towline release lever are off-limits for obvious reasons). Later on I took over control for a few turns, and I don't think I ever handled a plane in any sim with such concentration and patience ;) Earlier that year I was already invited for a glider flight by a close friend's father; unfortunately there were just no proper thermals that day so it was a pretty short flight. We had a winch launch there though (I prefer to think of that rather as a "catapult launch" ;)) which was also quite an experience... Finally, a few weeks later on a local airshow, I took a ride in this beauty: We had a US Black Hawk pilot on board for this flight, who took over for some minutes... hmm a Russian plane in Germany being piloted by an American helicopter pilot, interesting combination :) So in short, for the people here who have not had a similar experience yet: if you get the opportunity, do it, you owe it to you! Now where can I book those MiG-31 flights again...? :p Cheers,

Вот, хочу сделать локонову карту более похожей на карту, а то ни ориентиров на ней, нифига:

Принципиальная разница - в форме утверждения. Это всего лишь Ваше мнение. Я слова "я думаю" - не просто так выделил. ;) Почему Вы думаете что Андрей считает Апач лучше из-за преклонения перед Западом, а не из знания ТТХ, возможностей и, насколько возможно, объективной оценки?

Ярлыков не видел в упор. С пингом ниче сделать не могу :( Но скакал по экрану только один. А что брифинг. Синие летят туда, штаб там-то. Красные летят сюда, штаб здесь. А где они летят - черт их знает. Только и вижу лог. Одного сбили, прыгнул, разбился. Второго сбили, разбился, прыгнул. Но момент прикольный был. Лечу. Захватил кого-то. Пуск разрешен, пускаю ракету, и тут значит справа и слева от меня еще ракеты по этому же кадру мчатся :)) Гы Гы. Супер.
