Friday 2010-07-30 Dev. update and Discussions

BUT we know an average sized male pilot in 1940 was cramped sitting in the 109 cockpit, with his head almost touching, or even touching, the canopy (see earlier video posted on this forum a few weeks ago, showing modern youtube video of a pilot for an english tv show sitting in...)...

Average size of a male human in the 1930s in Germany was 167cm. Most fighterpilots, like Galland and especially Udet were almost not commissioned, because they were too small for the military standards. Comparing that to a modern man with an average size of 176cm for Europeans is silly.

Beyond that: Totally agree with TB56. Same fuss every week. I hate missing Oleg or Luthier's posts later in the thread, but I tend to just read the first page of a thread and ignore the rest. Total waste of time and energy.

Thanks for the updates Oleg. Sorry about the forum regulars.

Excellent! Love the aircraft markings, almost photoreal. Not gonna nitpick until I have the sim in my hands, I have never seen aircraft that looked that good (FsX included).

Yes nice up dates very enjoyable to see! The comments are less so. You have the impression of a hoard of impatient spoiled brats. Best just to look at the up dates and totally skip the comments.

I agree with you, WUTZ. I hope that Oleg and team stay steady in their excellent efforts. Too many wish lists and peculiar requests from the peanut gallery. If all were satisfied, the game would never be finished and there would be no commercial computer strong enough to play it.

All looks fine to me and one other concern is gameplay, you have to give up on realism somewhere to make it playable...
