NO BOB! The movie BoB is completely inaccurate in every sense.

Also, the mae wests used in the films were post war frankenstein ones; so BoB (as far as kit goes) gets most of it wrong ;)

Oleg, I am working on the scans. I had a pc crash and lost most of my research so I'll try and get back to you ;)

I did not look at kind of details in the movie BOB, the white sweater and the blue service dress are typical for RAF fighter pilot during BOB.

OK LOL, although the sweater was actually a frock which was roughly knee length. It is a common mistake made in films to make it out to be a sweater when it wasn't. It also, unlike the ones in BoB, wasn't a roll-neck ;)

- I hope the stopped propeller when pause is pressed is configurable. It may not be always wanted when taking screen shots and so.

- Will it have a resource to export aircraft data so we can link with other peripherals and apps (such as devicelink)? Will it work also online?

- Could one watch a recorded track from another pilot PoV (inside his cockpit)?

From the preview image I saw, it will have moving air masses. so...

- Will it have gauges to provide windspeed, temperature and pressure? (high level precision bombing intended)

So the amount if human and its animations depens only of time, and time again

Gun camera should recorded the film by enabling separate switch and then works together with the fire button That would be correct. then you will get several separate films - the same amount like you fired.

Thanks Oleg, sounds great!

Maybe it's expecting too much, but this is what I want to do/see in BoB/SOW: I want to be flying along, at low level, in my Spitfire, FAST and come upon a town that I fly over at treetop height. Ahead, there is a large space between houses and as I fly over it and look down I see a pack of boys, distracted from their soccer game, looking and pointing and hollering as I flash overhead- BELOW the forgotten ball which had just been punted. Give me that sim, Oleg and crew, and I will need no other!

Oleg, about the pilot, I know it's way too soon to ask it but...

Are you guys planning to model a pilot inside the cockpit (I don't know how to describe it, but try thinking about the one in DCS and you will probably understand me)?

Oleg are we going to have realistic wind gusts at ground level? eg. Heavy cross winds at take off, landing and buffeting of aircraft at taxi and takeoff.

Oleg, I looked at the img's you posted and my first thought was...final nail in the IL-2 coffin...Just stunning pic's and incredible possibility's for mission makers :grin:

I just love it. First Oleg gives us an alien-green landscape a week ago to stir up the feelings and then smacks these beatiful images this week. It's like the famous marketing campaign where Coca Cola in the 80:ies (?) said in a press release that they where changing the taste of Coca Cola as it was time to move on, and people all over the world where in a riot. Then some weeks later they said "Ok, due to popular demand - we will not change the original taste everyone obviously love!". A classic example of masters at marketing :) And it's for free ;)

A-hem...
Sorry for the stupid question - where are the links that everyone is discussing?
