...yet another rice-bomber :rotflmao:

Absolutly, and especially regards the famous old question Mig-29 vs F-16 BFM/ACM i would definitly bet my money on the pilot rather on the frame ;). Beyond visual range, it is just not "your airspace", no offense ;) happy x-mas

You dont need a "real" pilot to understand that. It is quiete simple. Even though different real aircrafts process the joystick inputs dependend on different values (it is not worth going into detail here, becuase question is "curves" ingame and believe me it would explode the topic), a ingame curve-option is mostly based on the fact allowing to balance different joystick inputs, basically a custom choice to counterbalance device properties etc etc. If you wanted it realistic, the game would just recognize the joystick inputs from 0-100 linear (your pure movement) and process it according to the airframe characteristics, its input processing grid and pure flightphysics according flightsituation (like old Falcon, and it doesn´t matter in respect if fly-by-wire or not), but there is no sim in my knowing not failing in accomplishing this - i mean the PC sims. In other words, NO, curves are just play-options, with the addition, that not one to me know sim (including this one) has not flaws, allowing to exploid your crafts performance (i gave it a shot, still the same problem like older sims have).....but this again, is another story, not worth being digged up in common interest me believes. Valid question, but i would advise addressing this question directly to the makers of this (or other) sim. cheers and happy x-mas

Looked it up myself, but thanks mvsgas. Finally they got this thing running.

Interesting topic, unfortunatly the link doesn´t work for me, thanks for sharing anyways.

Thank you for the quick answer, but the reason i bought this game is to give himself a general idea of "flying", there is no interest in "shooting". :D

I think i have not expressed myself good enough, sorry for that. I wasn´t asking about the keyboard input keys such as gears, boards etc. etc. those he already figured out and he does actually pretty good so far, but i was wondering, if there are any "buttons" in the cockpit iteself, because if, then i must have missed it. And yes, he does get started off on the right wings ;).

What buttons? Am i missing something, because i just bought this game for my ten year old?

"Red Baron" refers to Manfred von Richthofen who is till today a Legend. He was a top notch fighterpilot ACE in world war 1 with eta 82 confirmed kills. In that script above RedBaron is used as synonym for "ACE". A decent, but not fully accurate cinema movie about his life can be seen here: http://www.redbaron-themovie.com/index_en.html
