Well Sir.....then I take my hat off to you......if you can land a Fw190 in realistic or Sim and not rip the legs off then you are Grade A1 pilot material

Some where in Germany at Flugzeugbau AG , there are a whole bunch of brassed off AC fitter currently putting all the legs back on that i have broken off.....that's before I nosed over which is another Fw190 trick !! How many CTA games have I flown around with one under cart leg.....Ooooh lost count.

Fw190 reminds me of the wife....beautifull to look at........but quick to roll over..........slow when you want her to turn around..........and deadly when she has me in her sight's.....

haha! I haven't laughed so hard! I'm not quite of that age yet.. I thought getting 190's off my back was only on consoles!

Thanks, I should really do a few videos. I can land pretty much anything in awkward places. I'll prove it by landing every aircraft on the pier thing at dover! How this will ever help in CTA - no one knows!

congrats! if you can land one you can land them all. each one has its own quirks though. some you will land with the throttle completely chopped...some you need to goose it a little...etc. just need to practice in them. try sim like pope said it is a little easier because you can dump flaps. main thing is just dont flare too soon. set up your glide plane and let the plane ease onto the ground....

Thanks Fellow Flyers...bobbysocks & P51.........

Challange Time Mr P51......can you take a Po-2 and land it on the top of Flakturm I - Berliner Zoo, Berlin..( Think that what its called)...in the woods near the Brandenburg Gate........? .....got it on top once..... then rolled off the edge.....!!!

Over to you .......

Challenge accepted!

All of the crates have flaps, bar the I-16 and 156. The 47/51 deffinately have flaps in the game. I use the PS3 Thrustmaster Hotas on "thrustmaster 1" so I can't help further! Sorry

Thanks bobbysocks..........in Sim.....with Aviator option 1 set up...the P51 and P47 dont have flaps....is there a list of what planes do and dont have flap options....?....or does Aviator option 1 eliminate choice......?

i dont think there are planes that dont have flaps....maybe the Po2..i have only flown it once a long, long time ago. how the aviator set up on PS3 is configures i do not know. you may have to do custom set up....the PS boys will be more of a help with that part of your question..
