Excellent:) Where are those pesky conspiracy theorists now:D

[razo+r]

Is there no sort of tail wheel locking mechanism?

[LcSummers]

Thanks!!

 

Yes, two days. Cant wait to fly this beauty:)

I'm absolutely loving the new canopy lighting effect, and I really like how the paint is more scrappy and chipped, makes it feel more authentic like a real rushed wartime aircraft :D

[Torso]

I love working from home full-time as it allows me to enjoy this stuff as it is released. Nice vid, looking forward to putting it in the hangar after a new owners shakedown flight.

Nope... makes for a good leg workout :)

I foresee a new module coming with this...DCS: Runway Cleaner.

Omg. Thanks for the heads up. Most of my vacation will be consumed by trying to get airborne!

I suppose it wont be harder than 109 with unlocked tailwheel?

Not harder, different if that makes sense, no toe brakes, you have to apply brakes, then rudder input will be used for brakes on each wheel. So its different feel you will have to get used to, if that makes sense.

Like in the russian planes then :)

 

Can't wait till friday to try it out myself!

Anyone else find themselves trying to look around the cockpit when watching that clip and wondering why their TrackIR wasn't working :doh: lol.

 

Nice work Wags :thumbup:

 

Thanks for posting.......great watch.

Note the use of rudder in the landing. This is one thing that most pilots will need to get used to. You really need to get ahead of the aircraft with the rudder if you feel her starting to veer.

Ah, I forget to have the side-door down at the start of the lesson for you.

[MegOhm_SD]

Well Wags sure makes it look easy!

 

Here we go! Hope to do as well...

Note that I have had a Spitfire pilot coaching me the past few weeks ;)

[Krupi]

Surprised at the length of the nose it looks huge, seat too high perhaps! ;)

 

Perfect touch down wags :thumbup:

And I have had the fences along the runways in NTTR coaching me the past few weeks :D

Haha, no problem Wags.

 

Thank you for mentioning it, and it really is appreciated that you guy's took the time to look into this for us.

How many attempts then Matt? Goan tell us!

 

If I know DCS warbirds, its not going to be as easy at that looked. I like the new overhead style, thats going to be a new way to kill myself...

He spent some time on it for sure, but that does go with all the WWII fighters, its an art form to throwing these birds around, although I stand by my statement that Matt cheated with having a Spitfire pilot coach, or maybe I am just jealous :)
