I can't believe I'm on the second page of today's update! So much for frivolity.
Oleg, things seem to be coming along nicely. I am happy to see that there are options regarding weather condition in the FMB. Thanks to you and the team for the effort in trying to post regular update screen shots. It's a great boost to look forward to and see these regular updates. It also makes the waiting just a bit more tolerable (and keeps your Sow_BoB junkies off methadone!)

You are the first who noticed it. I placed this shot with two targets: one is wather and another - to show the quality of the ship

The first target to show that we keep main features and use of Il-2 FMB which will be very useful for Il-2 players. And then we add a lot of new features in the same frame of use like the old one. We keep even most hot buttons or button + mose controls the same.

In the gmaeplay we have two controls of views - the new one due to more greater use of muse (clicable cocpits) and by the switch - same as in Il-2.

Everything for easy transfer from old to the new one... by other words - in terms of user friendly transfer.

all the better to make my Flyby-Die-by missions, my friend. I liked the IL2 FMB. The new FMB looks so familiar and intuitive that I will probably get a lot of virtual pilots killed!

Very good point, and one that is greatly appreciated! Also, thank you for the beautiful Hurricane shots!

One thing: The Hurricane seem to have slightly more reflectivity from it's fabric covered surfaces than from the metal ones. Shouldn't it be the other way around, or is it just a trick of the (virtual) light?
