I'm just going to start with the Tiger Moth and see how that does in basic flight manouvres, then a Hurricane and Spitfire. I'll keep the 109 in the hanger untill I get a good feel for the inflight behaviour of the sim. Hate crashing on landing time and time again.
I think some of the critics that we have here among us have forgotten about the joys of a nice dawn patrol in a well simulated enviroment. Realize, it's 2011, being ticked off because you're not getting the award winning simulator of the year 2021 is silly. Someone here had pics of one of the 1991 sim that I really enjoyed then. Chuck Yeagers Air Combat. I stood in awe in a computer store watching that demo for 20 minutes on a 486@ 66mhz. I Would've never enjoyed that game had I known at that time what Il2 would look like in 2001. CoD has me giddy like that again, to the point that I'll buy whatever it takes to run it properly. Watch CoD get released, read the reviews and comments on the forum. Make up your own mind and pull the trigger, or don't, if you're not happy with what's offered.
Despite whatever might be "wrong", according to a few very vocal forum members, this is going to be the premier kick *ss WW2 flight simulator for some time to come.

Well said. I'm with you here, I simply don't care that it may not look photorealistic - for me, it looks sooooo damn good. Plus all the new FM and DM and AI goodness
I wish those people who say it doesn't look better than WoP could see what I see with my eyes.
