Hi Oleg,

Beautiful shots! Like Philip, I also collect WWII RAF flying equipment and clothing. If you need any pictures please send me a PM. So much detail has gone into the aircraft it would be a shame if the pilots weren't as accurate, many of us who play flight sims also know a fair bit about the flying kit used as well

just let us know what you need!

...etcetera.

Oleg,
If you don`t put some real humans in those stunning vehicles...expect me in your office in the very angry condition!

What about AI? Will it be more ,,real pilot" or Il-2 style? Because I hate when I pursuit... let's say... Bf 109E with... maybe F-80A, and then 109 just climbs me away. I really really HATE IT!!!

Hi Oleg,

The atmosphere is shaping up to be quite stunning and the most real I've seen in any computer game.

I asked this question in the other thread, but I think too late:

I see that right side blue text "messages" are still present (but maybe only for development). If we will still have these messages in game, will they be customizable? I feel that messages like "enemy tank destroyed" are big immersion killers (and sort of pointless), but at the same time messages for certain aspects of engine management are very needed due to lack of direct tactile feedback in a sim.

no way, that's satisfaction to me. Also in online play you need that so you know you got the kill.

Hello Oleg,

See pictures for typical cloting for RAF and Luftwaffe during bob.
All pictures come from Osprey books. Typical RAF easy to recognise from the movie BOB.

source: Osprey RAF aces of the Battle of Britain

source: Osprey Bf 109D/E aces of the blitzkrieg

source: Uniforms and insignia of the luftwaffe vol. 2: 1940-1945

source: Unsere Wehrmacht published 1941

NO BOB! The movie BoB is completely inaccurate in every sense. They made up the mask themseves (and included a leter was micrphone with it) the helmet was a naval pattern c-type (the c-type cam into use around 1941) and the goggles were mark 7's. Also, the mae wests used in the films were post war frankenstein ones; so BoB (as far as kit goes) gets most of it wrong

Oleg, I am working on the scans. I had a pc crash and lost most of my research so I'll try and get back to you

If you want, I have some pictures of the Battle of Britain Room at Duxford.

The glass over the displays didn't really helped. Plus, the camera's flash wasn't working (the camera was bought at 2004), and I suck at taking pictures. But still, might help.

Looking great lads! Keep up the great work!
