JU88 MajorBoris Help

Thanks for all the quick information, I appreciate it.

I will try removing the gun after I'm done posting here. I guess I should have mentioned that I mostly play single player. Hopefully I don't encounter a head-on attack and regret removing that gun.

The compressor operation I was referring to is the engine supercharger. Like I said I don't have any engine trouble yet, I mostly been flying below 1500m. I just thought I better find out as much as I can about the engines in case I do run into trouble.

I was on the ATAG server once some weeks ago just to see how my connection was. I flew a 109 and encountered a large flight of Wellingtons? crossing the channel. I chewed one up pretty good but could not bring it down, I took some hits and landed ok. Takes some getting used to the full real settings. You all invited me to TS3 so I could talk but I didn't have that equipment at the time.

I have downloaded TS3 Client but now I need a microphone and a new video card and then you will see a lot of me on the ATAG server for sure.

Thanks again for all the help!

Look forward to seeing you on ATAG, its a lot more fun than single player imho and I learn much more from the humans then the ai.

Superchargers can be engaged any time but will operate at 3200m(3500 in the pilots notes), be carefull though, if you engage them before because of the manifold pressure jump at 3200m.

As a side note: Flap operations are similar to the 110 and can be noted from the flap indicator(not the lever) below the airbrake lever(it shares the round dial with air break indicator), you will want have that indicator read .05 when you put the cursor over the instument for take off.....thats 25 degrees deflection outside on the wing.

S!

I forgot about that one and it cost me a bad surprise last night, when reaching 3200m all of a sudden I had an oil leak and other dmages to my engine and rapidly lost all power, didn't understand what happened until I read your post again

10 seconds before I had just monitored my temps, revs and manifold pressure and everything was fine...
