Wtf, Luthier you are here again????
First of all, i wan t to thank you and Oleg for answering so many questions!!! I feel like a small kid that has birthday, so exciting. For me you people are doing very good job and i will buy the game on the first day when it s out, be sure.
I have some questions: Will there be people (mechanics) at the airfield doing something, so that it looks more lifely, or seeman on the ships?

Luthier,

sorry if his has been asked before but I can't find the answer.

How does the Spitfire and other aircraft land in CoD? In IL-2 the Spit and many other aircraft bounce around like a drunken turkey if the touchdown is only a fraction off, as if there is almost no compression in the gear. It's like nothing I have experienced in any other game/simulation.

Is it better in CoD?

I thought all that bouncing was just my rotten landing technique. I would dearly love to be able to do a 3 point landing in my Spit (as I can suspiciously easily in X-Plane). However slowly I manage to touch down unless the nose is at or below the horizon I bounce way up and then bend the prop.
