If you've flown through turbulence in a small plane, or left the bitumen and driven on slightly rough road... you wouldn't be complaining about the higher-frequency shake in that clip, IMO. My eyes/brain do not correct for the shake in these circumstances - far off objects are fine, but not near objects like the cockpit.

ohh yeah were really believing your a certified RL spitfire pilot, freaking il2 pilot fanbois start to think their real aces, probably be telling their grand kids stories about their ww2 heroics, and their K/D ratios

you guys are a bunch of little wussie fanbois, all claiming to have flown through rough turbulence.. well i got news for you fanboigots, when the last time you through threw that turbulence with clear skies and big white puffy cumulus clouds, yeah i didnt think so, now pack your BS up and exit right off the fourm as you were just humiliated so bad you shall never show your face again

Well I was always taught to try and stay above those "big white puffy cumulus clouds" because pretty as they may look, their was usually turbulence below them.

Regardless, in that leaked video clip it is not meant to be turbulence. The cockpit view is shaking at roughly the same points I get stick shake in IL2 on my FFB, the edge of stall and high speed dives.

personally to me it does not look that that different to the effect I get on my bike at speeds over about 220kmh. The mirrors become useless and the whole fairing shakes and vibrates.

You have some problems, troll.

Got about 9,000 hours here, in everything from Stearmans to Pitts to DC-3s to T-34s to Lears to Hawkers to PA38s to Barons to 1900s to (are you getting the picture yet?) and when you're getting a real good shaking, you sure as hell can't compensate enough to read the panel- it's just a blur. Some of that shaking was in some beautifully clear air, and some in some mighty dark clouds, and just every so often, it was because I tried to do something the airplane didn't like. When, and if, I have the chance to fly the Spit, I'll be sure to fly into the buffet and get back to you on the accuracy of the SOW buffet/shake.

I quite sure 10mins of "Ace in a day" on Hellbomber's Xbox must top that. He'll shortly be complaining there's no P51 in SOW. We'll just have to face up to the fact that when SOW comes out, this level of debate (ok, I'm stretching the point!) will be the norm as the unwashed short trouser brigade wade in with their "I saw it on tv once, so it must be true" mentality.

Looks to me that the vibration was just weather/turbulence related. Try shooting at a bomber while flying thru propwash and wingtip vortices. Now ad thermals and nasty convective weather and it will become a choir just to keep the plane right side up. At Erco, acording to the FAA you're supposed to keep those "mighty dark clouds 20 miles to your left or right....(hehe,8000hr freight dog here). If they're going to model the weather like that I hope they give us a sailplane at some point.

Good post (& +1 on the sailplanes)!

Lol, BigC208, I hear ya buddy, I hear ya...

Not a pilot here but have flown through plenty of rough weather in small aircraft. As a passenger, I get the opportunity to look out at the wings and make sure they are still attached . Looking at the instruments (right seat) was not easy because the head was always behind the "shake" of the plane, if that makes sense. It's a matter of inertia and neck muscles. I don't think the pilots had it any different as they were "outside" of the plane and not very focused on the instruments in those scary situations.

BTW...if a shaking plane doesn't create just a bit of pucker factor for a pilot or passenger then they are either very brave or very stupid.
