These two would be useful and maybe not too hard to implement since crews call out hostile planes already and all planes seem to have generally the same damage model. For example:

Command: Damage Report
Answer from crew: minor damage to outer left wing, missing left elevator

Command: Nearest Hostile Location
Answer from crew: Enemy fighter at 4 o'clock

I am not sure if possible but maybe lining pilot eyes camera to bank indicator.
It gives great effect in Lock On series.
Basically when bank is out of neutral (total G is not directly down) pilots head is banking to keep summary G pointing directly down (in relation to head).
It is pretty natural since if you try flying straight but with non-zero bank you will put your head to keep it straight related to what you feel and not to where cabin floor is.

obviously some limits are required as person cannot bank head more than let's say +/- 90 degs but also I have not seen bank indicato that goes that far so still coupling camera to bank indicator should work.

The problem with that is when the game brings you back to real time when approaching an enemy and if you have realistic navigation on, you have real trouble figuring out where you are. It's virtually impossible when you are flying over water.

Just finished the PDF, looks good DT, not a bomber lover, but B-24 looks great, and the new sights/w the co-op options adds a new level of realism. And I'm looking forward to gunners having to rearm/reload cartridges.

A nice 19 pages of some thing to look forward too.

Thanks

Can you DT please make AI planes request runway lights to turn on during landing and take-off (should work when stationary lights are assigned "red" or "blue" side).
Currently it's only the player who can use the langing lights by radio command.

wonder what the ordinance cam will look like
 

Was just thinking about the upcoming ordinance camera, wonder how it will track a torpedo and the circling torpedoes? sea level? 100m?

i downloaded the 4.13 guide, and i'm only at page 2... thank you very very much to TD and all involved!! great job! :D

edit: ... pe-2 bombardier position...new official campaign... uprising '44... tobruk map... wow!

Useful information on fires and fire suppression systems in aircraft:

http://www.nist.gov/el/fire_research.../Chapter-2.pdf

Mostly applicable to post-WW2 aircraft, but some discussion of WW2 era technology, and plenty of explanation and diagrams on where and how fires start on aircraft. The section on ballistically-induced fires is most relevant to the game.

Thanks Gitano!

So.. When do we get the patch..? May be just cut off WIP part and release the finished?
