I've got a small problem... the D-model wont load for me. The other two works perfect, it's just the D-model that's acting up. Everything's installed as it should, and all other Aircraft works flawlessly...
Anyone else got this problem? I read through all the 30+ pages but didn't find anything that sounded like the problem i have.

My F4 Phantom will be sooooo happy!!!

Then again, maybe not!!

Mwahahaha!! (insert evil iron curtain laugh here)

Thanks for the awesome work!!

Its definitely tricky to land...  but so much fun! I built a runway with runway lights, taxiways lighted, and right beside a huge town which I lighted with the command and control city lights object, and tried night landings in hazy weather! Exciting! And the lighted city added immensely to the realistic feeling. Love the night cockpit lighting! This is such a cool jet. Thanks again all who were involved!

The MiG-21 is my favourite jet fighter sexy looking and fierce I downloaded the hotfix for exploding wingman, tested it against the a flight of F4s and my wingmen exploded on contact with the enemy I started to shout expletives at my laptop only then did I realized the F4 had fired their AIM-7s  and smoked us. 
 Thanks for the fix I'm no longer outnumber going against the F4s!

Here's the vid landing is not perfect but base elements of landing are correct I guess

[Wulfy]

I use Gunpod in dogfights 
because of poor performance of R-3A against enemy fighters

Really, wait for the high pitched tone, fire, dead phantom

Albeit it was successful it looks more like an emergency landing. The vertical speed was too big and glide path was too steep.

The starting altitude of the descend was too big and the slowdown was to rough and fast.

Read my remarks about the landing few post ago.

Tomorrow I'll make a video, of how I do it in much more safe way.

Finally!
I have new install of Il-2 v4.11.1m with sas modact v4, Jet war 1.3 and MiG-21!
I was waiting since firsrt post in WIP section to fly this:
https://picasaweb.google.com/118420964798084223915/097MWP#5738645803735712306

If you would like to check if the model or texture is right, this particular plane stands here:
https://maps.google.com/?ll=52.231599,21.027102&spn=0.001945,0.004128&t=h&z=19
(Thats Warsaw, Poland). Also there is one of the tree of the Il-2 Sturmoviks (Il-2m3) that has last in the entire world!

PS: I don't like MiG-21: it rolls very fast, but in other axes it turns muuuch slower. It's light but it's not as fast as i taught it will be. And the worst thing is that engine overheats right after you leave the runway. I'd rather stay with MiG-19 - flying them is pure pleasure!
Well, my Phantoms will have new meat to hunt for:D

PPS: during reinstalation i've found that in the jetwar 1.3 readme included in download there is no info about unslashing (//) jetwar sfs files in .rc file. I had to reread instructions from website for it to work.

I read post you mentioned and after that I was able to get plane down in a one piece. that landing was my one of the first landings I have done from cockpit view. Someone said that in touchdown your speed must be rather 280 than 300 I have made my landings at speed of 280 and I fail almost every time so should my speed be lower than 280 well I am learning little by little

tire world!

I can kill anything in this game in MiG-21 without much problem. As for FM it was verified and proved by real former soviet pilots.

Well you can be faster a bit, like 300 or 310 even, but that is not the point. The point is to be sure that descend speed is not more then 7 m/s and to make so, you need to start your descend at distance of 4km from the runway edge at 300m of height.

if you full fill this criteria, believe me, you will be really surprised how it is. I am saying, because first I was landing it just as you do, but then got the right instructions.

EDIT:

As for Mirage III I don't know. Better as Vega, but as from what I remember java and flight model was more or less finished only 3d part left, so if there is anyone that want to help with 3d, please PM me.

Yes Wasted I believe you and I will try again

[Hangman]

Not so self destructive landing as previous



Better isn't it

I managed also to land with no bump so I am getting better and better
