Don't know, exactly what you mean, but I may say, that ground vehicles do leave tracks in grass (not too long, however).

This Hurricane has the de Havilland Spinner & Prop.

#3 on this line.

I would think people were crashing deliberately because they wanted to see the ground and damage details closer.

I mean that if I crash-land my plane, I'll see a 'scar' or mark in the field where my plane destroyed the crops.
And that's nice to hear about the vehicles

Damn' work getting in the way, but certainly I'd have loved to be there to show you Russians a thing or two about flying. I expect an invite next time.

Nice to the shipping manouvering under that Ju-87 attack in Dano's vid.

Did anybody else notice the purple directional guides on the video 0:43 that Dano Posted?
I think that will be a fine addition to the project. I had tried to get some of my younger relatives involved into IL2 but they had a little trouble understanding how to fly it at first. Not to copy the MS model, but training visual aids do help. I am hoping for the same type of help with the stukas for offline fun. Too bad the AI did not take over when in attack mode at 1400 ft or soin IL2. (auto pilot as what I have read about) Will that (auto pilot aid) be in SOW BOB?

And thankyou, SaQSoN for another informative answer. Cheers

This would be excellent Philip. I can see us landing in a hay field in...England? You must be a Spitfire or Hurricane pilot? If I landed in that field it would probably be a wheels up ditch

Probably, not.

If the work doesn't let you to leisure - abandon the work.

Cool vid though I really wish they would get the right markings for the aircraft. Hurricanes with crosses and 109's with roundels just ain't where it's at.
