An improvement of the views system can be' interesting. The possibility to exclude padlock only for planes. Ground targets are way more difficult to spot and some servers will appreciate the possibility to exclude padlock for planes and live it for tanks.

How many years for a Flyable B 17 Cockpit?

With a dedicated team of a minimum of two working on just the B-17, and doing all the stations needed to make it proper for DT's high specs, I'd say two years. And that would be for the simpler E model, not the more difficult G with chin turret. And I'd be very happy with the E as we actually have the maps to use it on.

Midway, The Solomons, and soon, New Guinea/New Britain. Also a real map of Java would be good for it too as a squadron of 17Es and P40s was sent there very early on to act as a delaying action till we could build our forces in Australia.

Salute!

I know many like the addons like HSFX, UltraPack, etc ... I however, am a fan of the game Vanilla, always preferable, I think it brings less bugs, setting a best performance of the aircraft settled, a behavior for the game engine generally more effective, etc..
My Daidalos Team's Wish List for IL2FB begins by placing historical maps such as the Invasion of England, simple things that are not built to be present in the addons ...
Would like a further limitation to the roof of historic flight of the aircraft, which would allow a more real way to fly where it really would appreciate the possibilities and the knowledge of the plane ...
Stock sounds better resolved, more immersible!

Daidalos Team Thanks for the huge and constant work.

However the channel map will not make it to DT yet

Yep we would definitely need more French Squadrons because there was more than one squadron in the French Air force in WWII

One thing i would like to see as a mission builder is the ability to have composite flights, at several points in the war in missions i would like to make more accurately there were mixed planes flying in units, Bf109E1's and E4's, Spit MkII's and Vb's, razor back 51's and bubble tops etc.....

would be a nice feature if its possible.

(i know some of the examples i mentioned aren't in the stock game, they were just some of the first that came to my head, but there are many examples that are in the stock game planeset).

Reading the new, superb "History of the Mediterranean Air War 1940-1945" by Christopher Shores I learned, to my surprise, that Marylands were used as improvised long-range fighters, quite successfully intercepting Ju-52s bringing supplies from Crete to the Western Desert - that is, until they were decimated by Ju 88C-6's of I./NJG 2.

Did I allready mention my wish, that the Magnetos should be set to off when starting from an Airfield with skills set to complex engine management?

+1, would love to see this.
