It appears that we are often on at the same times so I will offer to show you a few things that I find helpful Bobby. It would help if we could hear you better. I have also found that I am getting lazy lately and could use a little brush up of my own.

I'll join with Shadow in offering my services on PS3. Whilst I can happily dogfight with the best, bombing is my speciality and I'm happy to let anyone into a few 'tricks' I've learnt since starting out what seems like an age ago!!!
Happy to do any mode although I'd prefer realistic or sim and as Shadow says headsets are a must to ensure the time is worthwhile. Again I'm on GMT and normally around from 1900hrs each night.

Once upon a time i used to think i was fairly good at dogfighting, and with a bit of practise i can get back into it and hold my own...

But its just "not me" im not a dogfighter.....

Im a bomber interceptor, a ground attack kind of guy, a bomber!!!

Ideally i'd like a Hawker Typhoon so i can do some ground pounding, or a De Havilland Mosquito, if were going heavy then i'd take the Avro Lancaster!!

But since none of those are an option, then i'll gladly do my bomber intercepting in the Hawker Hurricane/P47 or the 109/110 and for ground pounding i'll take the Hurricane with Bombs/rockets or the P47.

This game would of been superb cross platform.

Maybe one day eh.

I think in the second clip i've posted, you get to see this bad bay (20 seconds in), in action, then also on the firing range, when the commentary says "it kicks like a mule"

And it sure does... it rocks the whole plane!!


Beautiful piece of machinery the mossie. Had one still been flying and i'd of seen more of it at air shows growing up then without a doubt i could of comfortably said it was my greatest aircraft. Its right up their with the Hurricane
