I'd be tempted to come over too, I live up the road in Petersfield :)

Sorry guys, I didn't realise before posting someone might want to come. Unfortunately it's just a private meetup for Tangmere Pilots. I just wanted to show the developers that there are players excited by the prospect of getting the game.
Our day will start in Biggin Hill, we'll then go to RAF Uxbridge for the tour of the control room and dinner at the Battle of Britain club there. On Saturday, we start the meetup proper in Tangmere, few drinks at the Bader Arms pub then it's BBQ time.
Why don't you try and organise something with your squads? If you're not in a squad then you should really consider joining 1.

This game is not big in the US/UK. EVERY person i know who loves Flight simulator, has absalutely no clue what il-2 is. Now everyone just assumes its birds of prey.

That is why I'm saying AirVenture is a great place to showcase it... 500,000+ people in attendance. More general aviation pilots per square feet than anywhere else in the US. All with their wallets wide open looking to buy aviation related goodies...

Just set up half a dozen CH/Seitek/Thrustmaster Hotas and rudder pedals setup with Track Ir (with a proper combat seat) in a LAN and whatch the sales add up... Make sure you have enough copies of the game on site for poeple to take home... Usally the Spits/Hurricaine display is also close to the main square near which all the sellers set up their shop... Could be great for inpulse purchase...

Well just my 2c,

I would like to see Oleg & team at the Flying Legends airshow. Held at Duxford the are lots of Battle of Britain connections with this place. Tens of thousands go every year and I am sure that thousands of copies can be sold. It would be the best place to showcase it :)

That's a great idea, they could place their stall between the flightline and the glass fibre replica Hurricane (the 1 where you can have your picture taken next to). It'd certainly bring in a few new flight simmers to our genre.

Congrat's Maddox team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is realllllllllllly worth celebrating..cracking open a second beer!!!!!!!! whooooaaaa

Well I go for a pint of spitfire here http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur...1t:429,r:4,s:0

That's a shame, I'm not far away either, in Southampton. Enjoy your day!
