If you have 60% or less fuel make sure you turn the fuel cocks twice, to the inner position. You can always check your fuelon the upper left panel over your head, also you can switch it in inner or outer position (outer in default)

20% throttle is a bit much, try it on 10%

one has still to open bombdoors ? :(

hopefully the automatc opening/ closing in the Ju88 was a tleast deleted.

The Ju88 bomb bays work, let me explain.

The 88 has manual bomb controls (the bombardier had to turn a crank by hand), there was no motor to open them by pressing a button or moving a lever.

Like any other hand-driven control in the sim (for example the flaps on the 109), you need to keep pressing the button to simulate the pilot turning the wheel by hand (and also for the anthropomorphic controls difficulty setting to track it, if it is enabled).

If you only have the "toggle bomb bay doors" command and you press it once, the game doesn't register a continuous input and the co-pilot will not turn the hand-crank all the way to open.

So, the solution is to go into options and assign separate commands to "open bomb bay doors" (for example, alt+O) and "close bomb bay doors" (for example, shift+O).
Then, if you press alt+O and keep it pressed, the co-pilot will keep turning the crank and the doors will open all the way. After you release bombs you press shift+O and keep it pressed, the co-pilot will turn the crank in the opposite direction and the doors will close.

and nevertheless, in the version before the actual beta, the bombdoors are opening and ( at least try) closing themselves in the Ju88 .
actualy a feature the Blenheim should have, sure working faster :D
in the Ju 88 its 'just' a bug.

I do not seem to be able to arm the bombs any more in the Blenheim.

Is it me or is it something that has changed????

Now (beta patch) is not need arm bombs of Blenheim. Just drop then.

But in Bf109 still need...

they had never to be armed ingame since release.

Drop a unarmed bomb from Bf-109E3 and see.

i thought we are talking about the Blenheim bombs...................

I hope I am not dreaming, but I think in the previous patches, I would arm the bombs in the Blenheim and I would see the confirmation message.
Now I do not????

Anyhow, interesting concept of arming the bombs for some airplanes but not on others...

Thanks for the information gentlemen!
