It's been a long wait for BoB, but I gotta tell you I'm impressed by the video even though it's still in the "works" as they say.It looks awesome....My hopes are up again that Oleg and crew will do their best to deliver to us a World-class leading Combat Flight Simulator.

As for the argument over the buffeting, I have been lucky enough (a couple of years ago) to fly a world class aerobatic plane, the German build Extra300L to be exact...this plane is a genuine Dogfighter with unlimited maneuvers, top speed 407 kph, roll rate of 340 degrees a second....anyways as I said I was lucky enough to fly one for almost an hour and I'll tell you at high speed, doing barrel rolls, himmermans etc; There is definately buffeting, but it is pronounced only at certain times.Now how and when buffeting would show up on WW2 fighters such as the Spit would only be a guess on my part.I guess talking to an actual WW2 pilot would be the best source to answer that question.

Anyways Oleg keep up the great work, although I am dying in anticipation I have my money ready for the release whenever you feel it's ready. ...but please more videos!!

AWESOME



It's an early video but I'm excited!!!

HOwever the shaking felt off because it felt it it was on the verge of stalling. All the time.


Nonetheless, we have to thank Oleg n Co for releasing it and being so sneaky about it!



But I totally agree with Z, in that you don't notice the head shaking . . . it happens but your perception clouds it out . . .

Or your mind tunes it out to save itself from TMI . . .

and so if the pilots don't perceive that shaking, BOB SOW should cancel it out.

Leave shaking to tell me if the planes going to stall.

In IL-2 I always look for the shake when I'm pushing it (the plane) to the edge).

The shake in an aircraft on certain day's and conditions is not limited to your neck and head moving around a bit. I had many time's when there was quite alot of bouncing, jolting, and in general being thrown around a bit. Very simalar to a boat ride in a way. Then again on certain days and the time of the day is important, you can have nothing at all. Its just all related to the current condition's in the atmosphere. Anyway in game I'm sure that the weather and propwash will bounce us a bit...I think that I will enjoy that
