joey45 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 The FLIR preview has been in there for more than a some months it's more like a year... The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

I'm fairly sure a year has some months in it... /EDIT Sorry I just responded that way because I get a bit sick and tired of people just trying to find every little way they can to tell others they're wrong. Don't take it personally Joey45. You probably didn't quite mean it that simply. Maybe it's been there for a year... I don't know. What I do know though is that pointing out something like this, that doesn't actually matter, only serves to divide, belittle and separate. We need less of that in this world IMO.

I'm English, I'd love some RAF/Navy jets, but I wonder how many other people would buy..... But fundamentally being able to get enough information and permission is going to be the biggest problem with jets from all nations.... Along with viability to make money.

Funnily enough, whilst flying the other night, we were talking about the Tornado, wondering what would be the best version to do. If I could have any aircraft made of my choice, hands down it would be the DeHavilland Hornet, the best looking and in the conversation of top 3 prop planes ever made performance wise. Alas I know will never be in a flight sim, although there is some vague hope that one might fly again in real life....

On my case, I love mission editing so I prefer aircrafts that have a wide war combat background, so for a twin engine, WW2 type, I'd rather have the P-38, ME-110 or the ME-262. For cold war aircraft I prefer types that were widely exported, so that I can have a wider variety of user countries. 1 For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, I was being purely hypothetical and ultimate dream plane, not what I think should be considered re props and WWII in reality! WWII is getting better, but still a mess. If the 109 was a G variant (mid 1944 flavour, take your pic which one, the designations get very overlapping) rather than a K, the plane set would make so much more sense. A P38 J or L would fit well. Also the 262, but experience tells me doesn't go well online lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoops I meant Firestreak not Fireflash. British missiles designations are confusing. Even something like the Sea Hawk or Scimitar would be so cool. Also still waiting on Deka's upcoming aircraft.

Bremspropeller Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 The one british fighter this sim needs to see is the Hawker Hunter. It was flown by everybody and their grandma and hence it also saw a lot of action - even if that was mostly in smaller conflicts. It also was used till the relatively recent past. 1 So ein Feuerball, JUNGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
