thanks for the update !

great news on the correct implementation of having 100 octane fuel available for the brittish planes :)

excellent news also on the further improvements in fpsec

BlackSix, a question plz: can you please check with Luthier that he has also addressed the lack of correctly being able to select a specific FoV setting that corresponds to our personal monitor size (as we could do in the late versions of the old il2 series). right now we are limited to the 3 settings of "normal", narrow and wide, instead of being able to select between 35 and 90 in 5 degree steps like we should be able to. the result of this is that all ingame objects (including planes, trucks, ships) either look to small or to large compared to their real life sizes we should see from a specific distance. please ask or this to be looked at as a matter of priority (reported in feedback thread before)

+1

We'll see. When have they ever let us down before? :grin:

Hmmmmm, what other countries would be in the "morning" timezone?

Seconded.

Sweet, thanks B6!

Any news on AA?

Catseye 06-08-2012 04:57 PM

I note that B6 has stated:

"Added new Hurricane Mk I and Spitfire Mk I variants with constant speed propellers and fuel tanks filled with 100-octane fuel. Older 87-octane variants also remain available. (Please note that the new planes use existing cockpits, so the boost indicator gauge shows new extrapolated values)"

Soooooo, by extrapolation - where does the Spit ll stand??

Progress, progress. Thx for the news.

The Spit II runs on 100 octane by default, but its emergency limits are lower - 9 lbs vs 12 lbs - and is/was at low altitude. It is a bit better at higher altitudes though.

You should know by now bongo, it's never good or correct enough.:) It's a nice addition though but I hope it doesn't cause 132 new bugs.
