Level Bombing Manual Ver.2
 

Excellent work THOR. I have just downloaded the manual and the B25 skins which I will be using in my new offline historical campaign - Jv44 'The Bats out of Hell'. In this campaign the B25 substitutes for the B26.

I have just finished a mission with with 36 x B25's flying in box formation protected by P47's - the skins are fantastic and make the mission look spectacular with the B25's flying in their correct formations.

Jv44 'The Bats out of Hell' is a 25 mission historical campaign using the recently released Osprey book 'Jagdverband 44 - Squadron of Experten' by Robert Forsyth, as source material.

I have also just mastered flying the Me262 in the sim. Oleg has done such a good job faithfully modelling this aircraft with all its 'tricky handling'. I will be issuing some Me262 'Pilot's notes' to help people fly the aircraft successfully in the campaign.

I just re-read some of your manual...and it really is quite good. I'm very impressed by the scope of your presentation.

I would put this in the "must read" category for people who are serious about learning the ropes...

If their is someone else who said this above I'm sorry for being redundant, but I thought it was worth saying...


ONE more time...this is a "must read".

And one more time - thank you all. :)


In addition to the link about our Dedicated Mission I posted above, I'd like to inform you that we have formed a new DEDICATED BOMBING SQADRON.

I just want to say that isn't 'military structured' and that there are no weekly meetings if you can't make them. We're a group of pilots who can fly formation and go around servers promoting teamwork. You should be seeing us on your server soon. ;)

Only condition is to know how to fly formation and use of TeamSpeak. And we're happy to train anyone interested in joining us.


Contact me (PM) if you want to find out more.

Great work Thor, hopefully once i've finished the manual and perfected techniques i'll be well on the way from a wannabe bomber pilot :grin:

Although i'm already in a squad i'm keen to learn all aspects of being a bomber pilot - have you ever thought about running an 'online school' for those wishing to learn? If i recall there was one such thing in CFS1, joint ops if i recall? I'm sure there are a lot of pilots out there who would appreciate yours (and others) experience.

Thanks. :)

Unfortunately I don't have time to run something like that.

But I do run a Dedicated Bomber Squadron. And we're happy to train anyone in formation flying and level bombing. Once you have some basic skills in formaiton flying you may join us. ;)

Many thanks Sir, i'll be in touch!

This is great!

Also formation flying is great explained.

This should be in IL-2 manuals.

Respect!

Thanks Thor and everyone involved! Great work!
