Spit sabotaged, Goering releieved

[engarde]

if you could see me, i'd have my hand over my face and my elbow on the desk.

so very often the It Doesnt Fly Like I Think It Should posts.

i'll say yet again, you have no freakin idea how the real spit is supposed to fly.

maybe it flew properly 25 Constant Clueless Complainer born revisions ago, and due to the fact you dont know hows its supposed to fly, you had no idea.

and so you and your pot-O-gold passed like ships in the night.

yet now you somehow are a significant enough authority to bleat on about control surfaces and yaw and lateral this and leaf that.....

ill bet that NONE, read that again NONE, of the aircraft in the il2 sims fly "liked theyre supposed to" largely due to the devs paying too much attention to the sounds of clueless crying?

after all, armchair pilots have all the opinion in the world and absolutely none of the stuff that really matters: REAL FLIGHT EXPERIENCE ON THE ACTUAL TYPE.

yet again, the circle begins.....

It is not 100% true that trim "in NO way, WHATSOEVER, increase ability to turn". You seem to believe this yourself when you mention the P38. By using elevator trim you can increase your ability to turn, as you won't have to fight as much compression/weight. You kind of contradicted yourself that post.

I think he means to say that trim functions differently in reality than it does in the game.

@engarde - I was a bit like you at one point, but I learned that debate is the best thing we can do to get closer to the truth. Now, WWII vets aren't exactly in the flight sim programming department now-a-days, so you can't be too bitter about speculation. The best source we have is documentation and personal accounts, and as long as debate revolves around these and not mud-slinging, a fair amount of understanding can be attained.

And if these threads bug you, don't look, and for God's sake, don't bother posting in them.
