Hi Oleg. Are you still interested in models of French cars?

Hey HenFre,

How big is your development team ? It must be bigger than Oleg's, if we look at the frequence of your updates ).

You're welcome, mate

I have some updates on german freight cars. Not much but at least it is an update See the new "Ommr Villach" open freight car (2nd from the right on image).



More about that on my hp as usual, click on sig to get there.

Great work Henfire, well done mate, lets hope Oleg uses your obvious talent.

I've seen a video of them doing it in black shark, so who's going to be the first to land their Tiger Moth on a freight car in SOW?

[ElAurens]

I'd bet a Gladiator could do it in the current sim.

That sounds like a challange!

First person to do it needs to post a track!

If someone does it, that's YouTube material. Sometimes it's nice to watch a movie instead of firing up Il2 to watch the track.

Does Il-2 contain a proper flat freight car to land on? I don't believe.

(Il-2 doesn't have any proper freight cars at all :mh: )

The railways in IL*2 are strange.

The Germans couldn't use their own rolling stock on the Russian railways they captured, the guages were different. The distance between German rails was something close to the British 4ft 8in, whereas the Russian was something like 6ft, the German wagons just wouldn't roll on the Russian rails. So, most of the German transport had to be by road or air.

Germans have 1435mm, Russians 1524mm. Soon after german troops occopied russian territory special "Umspur-Trupps" (re-gauge troops) began to bring russian gauge to 1435mm gauge (or in other cases put wider axle distances to the bogies). And also captured russian rail vehicles (locos and cars) have been used by germans. No need to bring transportation to road or air because of gauge differences.
