  1. There were pilots in those days. Saved his friend - .. and btw... Let's not forget that warbirds had their place in Vietnam. pilots in those days
  2. Yeah....I just got the P-47. I think I better get a German aircraft too though. Last night on the best WWII multiplayer server there is, 4YA Project Overlord, I noticed 40 allied pilots and 17 Axis. If I had a Me 109 or Focke Wulf I would have helped out the other team instead. Haha! That's what I did last sale and I procrastinated and then missed out. You'll have to just bite the bullet and buy everything on your list and get the map too. Don't worry, you'll relace the money. Can alwasy get more.
  3. Project Overlord is not very good about getting the word out about their events. I've missed every one of them.
  4. I posted another one from the Lufwaffe side on the FW-190 forum that shows Luftwaffe tactics developed against Allied bombers, which should help Axis sim-pilots survive an attack against bombers on DCS WWII multiplayer servers like 4YA Project Overlord.
  5. Gun Camera Analysis, a number of people have requested this one and now was finally time to do another one. Same format as the last one only this time from the American perspective. USAAF and USN.
  6. Discussing the tactics used to takedown B-17 & B-25
  7. Unfortunately, that's too long to wait because for some reason, since the sale started coincidentally, there is a rash of new pilots flying on this server now and the numbers are way up. However, they are mostly people with US and British planes flying for the Allies on Normandy and it is making the Axis team too small to be a fair fight. They need more Axis pilots and that was the main reason I was going to buy a German plane. So, when the sides were unbalanced I could choose a German plane. Oh...but that was a good sale !........Also See above.
  8. I wasn't "waiting" to purchase actually. I was testing out 5 planes that I was interested in. I had to learn which ones I had the best chance of taking off and landing and which country I wanted to fly for on the 4YA Project Overlord WWII multiplayer server I mostly fly on these days. I only bought one but I would have purchased 2 more had I one more day. I decided against my first choice because after flying the Me 109 and getting used to it, I still felt tense and unrelaxed flying it because it is so needy of attention all the time. I liked the Dora but I found that the server only spawns that particular aircraft ridiculously far away from the action on the Normandy map. It took me a long time to figure out how to get the Anton off the runway consistently. For me, it turned out to be how I set the trim for take off. The P-47 was a pleasure to taxi, takeoff and fly. It's only drawback is it's turn rate. I will buy this plane next sale. 18 months ago I tested all these aircraft and not one of them could I get off the runway, even with your advice which you gave me back then. So I gave up on the idea of flying anything except my P-51. But for some reason, now, after exclusively flying the P-51for this long, I not have near the troubles taxiing and taking off other modules, with which I had very serious troubles previously. I had no problems at all taxiing the Spitfire, even. So, I did purchase that aircraft right away. The only one I got from the sale.
  9. I can't believe I missed the sale! I was going to buy 2 more planes, warbirds. I'm just kicking myself for getting the date wrong. All was OK at first when I knew it ended on the 7th and was prepared to purchase.... but then they extending it so I thought I had plenty of time and then next thing I knew it was already over. I thought it ended on the 15th because I got my time zone confused. I missed out by a couple of hours. Damn! Ok....enough. I feel better.... a litlle anyway. Well...I got one new plane ay least...but I wanted two more.
  10. After choosing a multiplayer server DCS crashes while on loading screen Net Sim Post Start every time. It just started doing this today right after I updated DCS and went to Multiplayer. Single Player has not been affected and works as normal Tried: full slow repair with Skatezilla and restart. Deleted FSX and Metashader folders Memory 32 GB Logs attached dcs.20210416-135524.crash dcs.20210416-135524.dmp
  11. Russians have declassified their Smart Bombs. We are waiting for Devs to update DCS accordingly so we the sim-pilot people can blow shute up here at DCS in style and precision! Roger Doger, over & out END OF TRANSMISSION:
  12. Skatezilla is what I would use.
  13. Oh.....Look! .................It didn't crash and burn on impact!
  14. Yes, that is what I meaned! If I can I will try to edit the title of this thread. Thanks... I'm not surprized about the Russian security. Russians go a bit crazy with security concerns in everything possible. With this I have had plenty of experience. In Russia there is at least one rubber stamp for everything.
  15. All of them don't. Nothing is clickable. Hmmm.... not that one! ........ Su-27 on up or a MiG 29... would be nice.
  16. I wish for Russian jets to have a Full Fidelity cockpit. At least one anyway.
  17. Call Sign -  "Bronco"

    Come to 4YA Project Overlord WWII Normandy server.

    Get on SRS follow protocol, Announce airfield & runway comms on Channel A

    Switch to Channel B for combat & flight operation comms 

  18. Thank you for your intel. I actually have tried those options and found them to be too blurry and the cockpit looks terribly cheap. On one of those options, I don't remeber which one, the numbers on the Gunsight Range to Target dial in the P-51 Mustang fade out to invisible when turning it.
  19. This is the first I heard about needed 20xx or better. The answer is nope! .... So I'm checking out of this topic. Thanks for your reply.
  20. It's not just the Steam players! I have the same problem too. Both DLSS & DLAA are greyed out. AA is off. Started with Admin rights MT Preview shown in the bottom corner of main screen
  21. Well, that's a good question. Seems this must have slipped by Willy Messerscmitt's attention! I'd never heard one called a Bf in my life until about 8 years ago. As far as I knew it was always an Me 109 till then.
