FM and real flight

[jf1981]

Hi,

I'm wondering about if the dev team could implement a FM closer from reality in terms of behaviour and all the small instabilities that occur particularly when flying low as the groud disturbs the laminar flow of wind when you get closer from the ground.

Particularly, I find CoD Supermarine Spitfire being a little bit heavy and too much stable in my opinion at about 90 to 110 mph approach and touch, more heavy than it seems to be in some videos of the real one making approachs.

I wonder how much complex and realistic is the FM engine, and about the wind turbulences al low altitude, but I have the feeling that it could be even closer from reality.

I take it that you posted this helpful comment based on your experience flying real Spitfires, or your perception of "reality" is another Hollywood/home video/videogame based one?

Not a valid response, just looking to get backs up I imagine. What's with the sarcasm??? Arse.

jf1981, I wonder if the feature you talk about are among those that are to be 'unocked' in the coming years as hardware is able to deal with the added. As for the Spitfire's FM, I have no basis to comment really other than it does feel remarkably stable when firing compared to a Hurricane but this could be accurate for all I know.

because u just joined and didn't even make an effort to look at topics that already been discussed.. who's the arse now?!

When will people stop joining forums and go on about alleged problems of things they don't have an understanding of and:

1) don't make an effort and see if the thing is being discussed already

2) motivate their assertion with factual data/evidence?

your posts are a waste of space, get over it.

I wasn't referring to you in particular, there's a lot of people here which make silly assumptions. You motivated your concerns better and I suggested you a possible solution, my reaction is annoyed and a bit rude maybe because it keeps on happening on this forum.

Good luck with the flying lessons, it will open a new world and answer a lot of questions.

Oh yes, I forgot I only just joined the forum so I guess I should be humbled by your superior post count. Yes, forget about what experience or knowledge I have and conduct your interactions with me based on when I joined a software publishing forum. I can only offer my most sincere apologies to the great Sternjaeger II.

no, it's not about post counts, it's about experience as you said, and reading forum rules, or more simply common sense. As for comparing knowledge and experience on the subject you picked the wrong fella, trust me...

If you entered in a pub and said to the landlord "Hey, that's not the way to draft Guinness, I've never done it myself but I'm sure it isn't, cos I've seen it in a movie or something" what do you expect the reaction to be?

And you being her AN HOLE MONTHS is justification for you to be an arsehole. If you were living in my house I'd put you in a dress and make you do my chores, because you sir, are a silly little bitch.

If you actually followed the forum you would probably see that I've been here way longer than that, but once again it's people like you that give strength to "it takes one to know one"

uh and well done for showing us what sort of illiterate (" here a whole month" not "her an hole months", I'm a foreigner and speak a better English than you!) misogynist macho man you are..
