Repeat, if everything will go Ok with the other work.

Доброе утро Oleg, hope you slept well

Looking forward to the presentation, but don't worry if you won't have time to do it for next week, we can wait "two weeks, be sure"...

Pretty impressive but maybe lacks industrial scenery like dockside cranes, warehouses, gas holders, industrial chimneys etc. Also the East End houses should consist of more back to back terraces instead of semi-detached houses. --- I'm not complaining. Just an observation. I would like to see a shot of one of the major train stations, like Clapham Junction or London Bridge Stn. Note: Tower Bridge has not popped into view yet? Maybe its just outside the view limits?

Did you watch any of the videos because the screens don't do the videos justice

I think my favorite is when that Ju-88 pilot is pulling out of the dive. You can just hear him grunting while he's pulling back on the controls with his chin in his chest

hahhaa, I dont believe that was the pilot as there was no sound, the person who flew it made some that weird noise

nonetheless, the Ju-88 looks awesome , all those little details (drool), just beautiful!

It's not a good idea to have too many internet windows open a the same time!

I agree (although I suppose flying whilst holding a camera in one hand can be quite hard )
Also, I personally could not test the sim without (first) firing the guns, flying down to ground-level, shooting the ground, shooting he water, looking for some objects to strafe, testing out the damage model, etc Perhaps this is a reflection on how long these people had already been playing the sim for?

But if there were bombers about, I'd have to have a go at shooting them up, too. Have any videos been posted showing different smoke-variations? I haven't seen any film of fuel or glycol leaks yet.
Still, what's been posted has been awesome. I never thought so many videos would be posted.

Out of curiosity, can anyone comment on oil-leaks? I have seen a few videos shown oil on the windscreen, and I had rather hoped one would see it spray on. I know it may sound like a complicated process, but even if the animation was on a loop, it could still look really cool.

That's the West End of London

It was totally different from the East End.

You are wrong. The area in the foreground all the way to the middle ground is the East End.
The Isle of Dogs in the right foreground was a major area of docks with cranes and Victorian style multi storey warehouses. I saw it before most of it was torn down. The west end is in the far distance. The City of London, which is east of the west end is in the right middle distance. Notice St Pauls is not in view at that distance. Perhaps it should be?
