Il-2 is like WinXP. It won't die by SoWs presence. SoW will replace Il-2 step by step depending on the theatres and planes it offers. If SoW doesn't have it, Il-2 most probably does. In 10 years maybe the SoW series will have replaced Il-2 completely... but until then, everybody still will use Il-2 to fly in theatres that SoW does not have at the given time.

There was a very good cockpit + gunner stations made by 174ShAP_Kami (Sven Groetsch, he's listed in the credits for aircraft models BTW) back in the FB/AEP times, but apparently Maddox Games did not approve it as it did not meet their technical standards. I don't know if Kami still has the models. They could be used to get it right and finally add the plane flyable. I don't even want to mention that 174ShAP doesn't exist for a very long time now... don't know the name he now uses
He also finished a model of the B-29 interior... that one looked great and I remember it everytime I see the crappy mod cockpit out there (sorry for the words, but if compared to Kami's models, it is). Sadly with the same result, not included in AEP . Visually these interiors are top notch and I'd really appreciate to see them in Il-2 some time .

I wasn't making an ironic comment at all!! I love bombers, I love flying them, I love watching them fly, I love dropping bombs from way up high and trying to hit my target as accurately as I can (I'm not often successfull unfortunately!), and I fly mainly Russian aircraft! So, a flyable Pe-8, a flyable IL-4, and a flyable SB-2 would be really really sweet!!

As to the Pe-8, I remember over the years discussions about trying to get aircraft into the sim and Oleg reporting that sources for cockpits and the like were either non-existent or not of a high enough quality to be able to accurately create the 3d cockpits to make them flyable. I remember specifically Oleg saying that there were no surviving pictures of the Pe-8 cockpit which is why it was never done. It's impressive to see that Psy06 spent three years getting the missing tech data to complete this aircraft!

Anyway, I am happy to see that not everyone is obsessed with single seat fighters!

Nearly a month of time now! You guys shure have a talent to torture the once who are waiting.

Just a pitty that I´m no masochist, otherwise I would find it funny to step in here and see nothing than spam (including my own posts)
