I think it was a joke... And he has a point. Relax.

I think everyone did well on this subject. If it went overboard that's ok I guess because it doesn't really matter. Like someone said no information is bad information. I'm sure Oleg has what he want's somewhere in all of this. There's a lot of flames and planes in here ...that almost rhymes.

It's been an interesting thread from the start.

And you can never have too many videos of Merlins.

The general consensus seems to be yellow at startup turning blue (all things being well) a few seconds later.

It will be interesting to see Olegs interpretation.

I thought everyone might enjoy these fiery pictures.

Not posting for the game, but real never the less … the spitting fire is caused by over priming, the raw fuel is spit from the exhaust, hence the name “spitfire”

OK we all know the little fighter was really named after a girl named Ann but the spitting fire makes for a better story.

Thanks for posting the Friday updates Oleg, I’m sure you will pull the information needed from all the replies, looking forward to SoW Battle of Britain.

Oh, I'm relaxed. I guess I missed the joke or the point.

Yeah.. it was the smiley face that gave the joke away and the 310 replies that make the point.

Precisely. Discussion was invited regarding flame colour being too yellow in the shot. Everyone says 'should be blue'. We don't as yet appear to have a response to this.

Necrobaron,

It was a bit of humour among pages and pages of scientifical dissertations. Maybe in your culture humour works differently, apologies in that case. BTW your sentence "Oleg specifically asked for input and he got it" is a great piece of humour to my eyes, bravo!

Insuber

..erm, what kind of response do you need exactly? From Oleg? :confused:

Was kind of the point of this update, oleg asked a question, a majority of posters awnsered another q (that was never asked btw) instead and we havent seen him since.(exept for a few posts by oleg in the beginning)
