Preview flight simulator "IL-2 Sturmovik: The Battle of Britain

[Coen020]

I vote: best screenshots ever!
That shot with the Wellington's is my favourite.

Perhaps Furbs could set this in the update thread?

Done.

Is the BF109 pilot new?

Pilot looks bigger and sat upright? ( unless it's an old pic)

not like the stupid Spitfire pilots who are all laid back..I wince to myself everytime I see the Spit pilot...

and nice to see what Oleg's modern civilian flightsim will look like !!

Interesting pics Rodolphe. Looks like the issues with weathering not being applied properly to markings is solved now, this looks very convincing to me.

I think (?) the Spitfire pilots may be new now too - see the shot with the Spit with open canopy over the convoy.

Pilot looks bigger here too.

Oleg's Modern Flight Sim? Really? Any details?

[Stiboo]

Because we have a modern acrobatic aircraft included with COD!

Oleg is preparing us for a future modern version of his flightsim engine.
Why else include this plane which has nothing at all to do with the Battle Of Britain?

Can't think of any other reason for the bizarre inclusion of this plane, other than testing the waters for the future?

But I am happy to have an extra plane for nothing in COD considering the time and effort it takes to make one.

it for acrobatic flights maneuvers & training.

Nice whine.

It's for testing the flight model to a verifiable reference.

Time will tell all !

If it's only for testing data then why make cockpit and skin it?

Only 1 model of the Bf109E included in the sim... But we have huge amount of time devoted to a modern plane...
