So there are no other ww2 fight sims... Simple FACT

The A2A Spitfire with the Accusim stuff is actually a lot of fun and seems amazingly well modelled - even without guns that fire.

It may not be a WWII combat flight sim, but it's definitely a WWII flight sim. If you've never tried flying the A2A Spit and you have the chance to do so, you should. Might not be your cup of tea, but it's definitely an experience.

At the very least it'll make you wish the cockpits in CloD were that detailed and functional.

Never tried the A2A Spit. Is it totally accurate? As in, do you think you could actually start and run a real Spitfire after spending some time with the sim?

To be a WWII flight sim you would need a WWII map, environments and associated objects to fly in. I thought the A2A Spitfire whas just a plane. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, how does FSX go with thirty odd players go in the one map. WWII was all about formations of aircraft.

Both apples and oranges are very good but difficult to compare.

My understanding of the FSX and A2A spitfire is that you have a modern day flight sim with a WWII aircraft (very detailed) in it. But that does not make it a WWII Flight Sim.

Cheers!

Exactly, you can't expect the same level of detail on EVERY aircraft in CLoD. Then I'd probably be Battle of Britain - "Spitfire vs 109...and nothing else". You have to take in to consideration that CloD is a COMBAT flight sim and that it has many other parts of the game that need equal amount of attention as the planes. The A2A Spitfire guys only has to take focus on one single thing, the plane. No ballistics, no DM, A.I? etc. It surely is the most accurate Spitfire but that's all it is, one single plane. IMO.

After reading a bit the sukhoi forum, I see the light at the end of the tunnel. And maybe it is not the train .

I wish CrazyIvan were still around to help us with the translations, and everything else.

He was a good member of the community.
