Thanks McQ. One have to have something to do whilst waiting. As PSN seems to be out for yet another week, I guess the alternative world of BoP will surface here.
The shots is from the campaign, one of the British missions were you have to chase down some bombers over Dover. Fly west along the coast and you will find a large base. Easy to land in SIM since your flying a Hurry. Land and just manouever along the different objects....

Awsome Spitwrecks there Walter, cant wait to get airborne to give you some revenge for those.......

[Dementia_Seven]

ok revenge acquired ^^

i thought there are so many german planes wrecked during the bob missions, i shall do some shots of a spitwreck as an offset.

In the interest of PSN offline fun..........


Realistic test 4 8 FW190-A5 v IL10

6 FW190 shot down
2 FW190 collided with IL10
5 IL10 lost, 2 collisions, 3 shot down.
Funny thing though, 190,s will all come from above, quick burst,
then drop down and pepper underside of IL10 on upward pass !
Dover - Manston, 22mins,8secs

ME109G6 climbing 500-15,000ft Immelman Turns
9.5 turns, after 10,000ft, needed ASI of 210+ or will drop out and stall,
only plane so far to get skittish and close to stall on last turns. Took 3
attempts, mind you I have learnt to fly the 109 series on full settings
so maybe it was me. Full speed in the dive from 15,000 was 490mph
and that was 1500ft from the deck !!


Next test 8 P51D v IL10 + Hurricane 500-15,000ft Test

If you are Realy bored.......

select the Canterbury map, fly to the western end of the river Sturry, then attempt to fly under all the bridges all the way through Canterbury and beyond with out crashing (Some bridges are paired ,so only one counts) . Then on the return leg...fly upside down and see how many you can clean without crashing....my record is just 3 !!!


What will be yours ???

[scottyvt4]

ooooh might try that later

me and you wild last time we had a free flight








ive put some other pics in the pic thread feel free to have a look

[WildBoar44]

Aaaah.....the Glory days Scotty.....when we were free to roam the sky's aloft in search of the freedom and escape the grubby chains of mother earth.

We are are strange Race....through the black console by the TV , we form strong bonds and friendship's, think back fondly of those ariel joust's... learning from the Ace's on our tales', wonder at those justly great opponents and marvel at their ariel skills........But when its a blank screen, we miss those great flight's, seemingly seem lost without those great flyers and truly mourn the empty day's and night.....

And how do we cement that bond and show how much we really missed each other when we all get back together....??

Yeh...no freindly handshake, no warm embrace...Na..We gonna try and shoot the sh*te out of one another, rip our planes from underneath us, and prove we are natural born killers....just to show how much we all missed each other !!!


We are a strange Race......

Realistic Test 5 8 P51D v IL10

Now....bit odd this one...had to do it twice.... 1st time IL10
took all P51D's out in under 6 mins for no loss...!

Cant let Mustang Sally be shown up like that can we !!

Second test was as follow's...

6 P51D shot down (all total blow up's)
1 P51D collided with IL10
1 P51D shot down smokin distant demise
2 IL10 lost, 1 shot down, 1 collision.
Dover - Manston 7mins..12 sec's.

Now why this fine WarBird be discraced with being taken out
in a third of the time of any other plane so far ? . some sort of
pro eastern block v capitalist propoganda by the Dev's ?.

Reversed it next time and took 1 P51D v 8 IL10, carefull positioning
away from the Zombi gunner's resulted in 2 death's and 8 kills in
17mins, 14 sec's. Its not Fair !!!


Hurricane....500-15,000ft Immelman turns
11.5 turns to 15,325ft, slowest so far, takes a long time to build up
to any where above ASI 180+ for next turn, kinda tricky not to stall
as well with ailerons max and elavators -3 on realistic . Max speed
in dive was 456mph until crashing into Dover Castle !

Next test... 8 Yak1 v IL10 + P51D 500-15,000ft Test

[JOED70]

Wild put rockets on the Mustang and watch the AI use them against the bomber . I laughed so hard when I found that last week. Even the AI get pissed off :

Yak 1 Sim Iml Climb 200-16000ft 12 turns 4.54 mins/sec combat flaps full sensativity full power vertical dive from 16000 resulted in Over speed at airframe failure @ 481 mph @ about 1500 feet.

Good old days JOED...
