Excellent screen shots.
I am glad to see the increase in activity now that the Playstation (or whatever - Im not interested in that) IL2:BoP version is on the streets. Let's hope it generates a whole new young fan base that will realise that BoB:SoW is where the future of flight sim action really is...

I have not read all the 11 pages of this or 55+ pages of the previous thread so this may have been mentioned before...

Everything is excellent - and answers have been given for the obvious terrain issues. Weather and terrain are unbelievebly difficult things to get right.

I flew from Woodvale to Yeovilton yesterday - 40knot head wind!!!!:

We had wispy Cu at about 2000ft with a really thick haze below but at 3000ft we were above the inversion where the horizontal vis was near perfect. Looking down we had only about a 4 mile radius slant vis through the haze and aircraft below us further away appreared as clear black/white dots against the uniform grey haze...
High were layers of AltoCu and AltoSt in various grey and blues with some blue sky between and even landing at 1230 I noticed pink and redish tints to this altoCu way off to the south over the channel.... That's real life ..... Model that....

Obviously, I am not expecting this and my opinion is that current IL2 clouds (IL2:4.09 UI1.2 for me) are excellent. Apart from a slight blockiness, flying formation in cloud is exactly as it is for real and (like many others here I'm sure) I know because I have done it.

The point of this post is to congratulate Oleg and his team for their outstanding work and diligence, but to raise one small thing.

In the spit the power supply lead for the gunsight hangs down partially obsuring the attitude indicator!!!! What a pain in the proverbial when it comes to blind flying in IMC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL Can it be moved out of the way please.....?

So excited about BoB:SoW I built my first computer in anticipation - Intel I7, GTX275, 6GB, 750GB, 850watt - Will that be enough please???????????
