Seriously !!!!

It appears that you can lock tailwheel on a B-25, despite it having a tricycle landing gear! With the "tailwheel" locked, takeoff becomes a challenge to say the least, and landing is very hazardous!

Yet more mirror surface bugs: the sun shines through the mirrors of all Macchi C.202 and C.205 models.

Testing the La-5F

In terms of DM, almost the same plane as the La-5, although a bit more vulnerable to engine damage, perhaps due to the bigger and more complex engine. In a very few cases, the engine can be badly damaged by just a few small caliber bullets.

Other than that, the Shvetsov ASh-82 is one of the toughest engines in the game, perhaps even better than the P&W R-2800, an engine approximately 200 kg heavier and noted for its ruggedness.

The only DM problems are that the plane is rather vulnerable to control cable hits - especially elevator control hits.

Also, the plane is a bit too flammable, especially since it had the exhaust gas fuel blanketing system in addition to self-sealing tanks. Since the exhaust blanket system was only turned on prior to entering combat, it might be simplest and easiest to model it as a form of fire extinguisher for the fuel tanks.

Armor glass seems to work realistically, although given the narrowness of the cockpit I collected a number of pilot kill results from hits around the armor glass. That's not a DM problem, just a fault with the plane itself. The few bullets that hit the armor glass at range seem to have been stopped, the bullets that hit the armor glass at close range went right through - which might be realistic for AP bullets, maybe not so realistic for tracer or incendiary.

Edit: La-5FN DM seems identical.

I took KG26_Alpha's "warning" as being ironic, rather than serious.

But, if the moderators believe that my DM testing is spamming, then I'll stop.

Hehe just some "fun".......

When someones mistakes a He111 for a Me410 after so many "bug reports" posted.....

It was a polite "poke" that's all

[shelby]

here is another bug in tb3's cockpits

[sniperton]

IMHO it's not a bug, it's only a problem. The solution is called 'elevator trim'.

[shelby]

what do you mean?
