Its probably going to take them awhile to figure it out though. My guess is they'll narrow it down to a few and then start researching and make the decision based on information available.

I'm hoping for something different like the H-6 they mentioned. Wouldn't be upset by a J8II or Q-5 though.

Thanks!

No newsletter today? Its usually out by now.

Yea that was disappointing. Implies they don't know what they're getting into.

I fly Hueys for a living and our sim is pretty good, for a sim. It has a few flight model issues though that bug me but most people wouldn't notice. I actually had my girlfriend practice on it for hours with VR and a proper cyclic and collective control and took her up in a bell 206 to give her a flight lesson. She did no better or worse than an average students flying a helicopter for the first time although she did say she thought it helped her grasp how to use the pedals quicker. Also I can say my skill as a pilot does not directly translate to skill in flying the Huey in DCS. As far as jets go though I'd put my money on the L-39 being most likely to let you go from no flight experience to being able to fly the real one and the Yak for props. As good as the sims may be on ww2 i don't see any of them teaching a first timer how to handle thst much power. As to the best helicopter its probably between the Ka-50 and the Mi-8. The closest experience I have to either of those is a CH-46 (and not a whole lot of experience with it) but the ka-50 does feel like a multi rotor system with a lot of stability control systems and the Mi-8 just "feels right" but I don't have any experience with heavy single rotor helicopters.

Please no. I like being able to assign a plane to another country. Red has no non fc3 planes(jf-17 is debatable). A corsair will release long before a zero. An option to set them in the ME then lock them online in server would be fine but don't make them go away.

Would someone be able to do a G4m or P1y skin for the Ju-88? It will probably take us awhile to get Japanese assets and the Ju-88 will make a good stand in for a torpedo bomber and we already have Japanese skins in the game for th Fw A8. Thanks in advance to anyone who decides to take it on!

Actually the op specifically mentions the 802. There are plenty of topics on the An-2 if you want to talk about it. This is about the brand name Air Tractor.

There's also a light attack version of the 802 that would be fun to have. Probably never gonna happen though.

So how competitive will the P-47 be against our current German line up?

Yep. It's not the best fighter but it was the most prolific early in the war.

Razbam may be doing a Mirage 3 for their Falklands map. Previously they said it will be a full module but they've been more reserved about that lately. Also Aviodev is doing a Mirage F1 when they finish the C-101. They had posted some pictures awhile ago but those are pretty dated now.

I hope so.

I think they've been doing twitch streams that are only available for a week. I don't do twitch so I'm not sure. But hel gato has a video of it on youtube. There's a couple other if you don't like his videos.

Came across a few videos of a guy with an F4F. Part 1 is prelight, 2 is start up, 3 is the flight. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

I'd rather see asset price baked into map price. Charging for asset packs fractures the online community. I know we all pay for it one way or another and thats fine. But there's no way everyone in my squad os going to buy 3 different asset packs to run a mission.

I'd rather see something more dissimilar to the F-86. Like an F9F or a P-89. I love the time period though and would buy a 84.

Cool, of course it will be better to get the proper ai, but at least it can work as a stop gap as the Pacific get filled out.

Since we now have the Ju-88 torpedo bomber, are there any close Japanese analogue to it that we could paint it up as?

if you don't mind a few islands in your ocean DCS Marianas is coming.

I'm always frustrated by the attitude of only wanting the best plane. Flaws are what make them interesting and force you to learn. I hope we get a wildcat.

As much as I hope to get news too all we're going to hear is "not until we finish the 101". Which I respect.

Worth it.
