Yeah, I gave up writing long and interesting briefings for the Co-op crowd 'cos hardly anyone reads them!

Personally it's gratifying to see the shape of the new FMB is not radically different from the IL2 original. Learning the new settings and applying them onto a well-known framework will be better than trying to learn a whole new system, and I hope to be writing missions quite early on.
Another point is that I expect to still be flying FB after Storm of War commences - specifically 4.10 and UP - which is another good reason to have a similar FMB setup.

Thanks for this exciting update,
