Thread cleaned by me

Also, just on point of order:

I was going to let this topic fly, as honestly, the title made me piss myself laughing...

 how much prettier DBW is and I just cant go with anything else! :D


Well what do you mean with prettier ? Maps, objects, etc ? If it's that then you can have all of it in 4.11, except the planes. Just read a bit in the 4.11 mods topics  ;) And yes, I also recommend you to try the AI  :D

In DBW everything is redone. Insides of cockpits, even the POV's, reticles, intruments, at least of most planes, as well as their outside 3d is updated, as well as textures, objects, weather, like you said the maps, all effects are adressed, all sounds. Layouts, GUI's, evrything from point A to point Z has received some attention. Stock and DBW are realy two completely different animals. I think when we bring the two together in DBW 1.8 that it wil be VERY pretty indeed :)

 ;D

Oh my lord!
 ;D
Guess from now on when I fly an allied aircraft ill have to modify the skin. They will all be "The dingus" from now on!

Does anyone have links to good P-51 campaigns that are DBW compatible? Bodenplatte is just, well, not doing me any favors...

I'm new here but already have some experience with jet fighter simulators and other simulators. I had great fun reading you guys, and really enjoy reading debates relaxed. If someone is upset with the sarcastic answers I think is lacking in a good mood!
Before anyone gets mad, that below is a joke:))

1 - The propeller is just a fan in front of the plane
to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? When she stops,
the pilot immediately begins to melt away the sweat.

2 - Remember where you pilot your head and not your hands.

3 - Try to keep the number of landings equal to the number of takeoffs.

4 - Everyone knows what the definition of a good landing: it is when you can
  walk away from it. But few people know the definition of a great landing:
  is when, in addition, you can use the plane again.

5 - If you face an emergency landing at night,
  turn on the headlights to see the landing area. If you do not like
  what you see, turn off the headlights.

6 - A pilot is a confused soul who talks about women when
  flying and about flying when he is with women.

I'm just puting the finishing touches on a historic P-51 fighter escort style campaign that I call "The Yoxford Boys"
I plan to release it here and at M4T within a couple of weeks.  It's made specifically for DBW and UP3 instals.  All the missions will be based on actual missions flown by the 357th fighter group.  I hope you will like it.

I love the donkey dingsda ;D





After CWMV started his thread :D, I actually got deeper in training my Stang skills. Still poor at it, but this is a superb plane. But I have to say the BF-109 e.g. - at least those I flew lately- are a more stable gun platform.
I think the P-51s are naturally unstable per design-and in present time fighter layouts-unstability is one mandatory factor for excellent manuoeuvrability. (With FBW lol).
I think the P-51 was very advanced.. ;)

Yeah, I have the same feelings about the Mustang in general. Very tricky to fly (especially at low speeds) and not all that manueverable. However, the A model is a joy to fly! On all variants, combat flaps will help quite a bit during low speed maneuvers, so make sure to use them. On the Allied side, I prefer any of the late model Spitfires and/or the La-7.

CWMV---I do not believe that you mean any harm by this thread, nor to trash any vets or traditions. 

This thread has an air of humor to it. The caricatures are funny. The post by Fly is hilarious.

You all might think the Mustang is my favorite plane but actually it is not. I enjoy flying it but the bird has its limitations. You wont win the war with it. It shares one flaw with the FW 190 in that it has a tendency to "over-bank"---that is, if you bank too sharply the plane will turn over on you and take a bad dive. I f this happens at low altitudes you might actually crash. The Wulf does this also but to a lesser degree. Another one is one of my top favorites, the Dornier 335. This being possibly due to the large wing area neccessitated by its heavy weight with two motors. I like the 109G-series in 1942-3 missions, but I consider this plane in it's peak of dominance in this era.

Being one of the lightest planes in IL-2, the Mustang gets blown around and pushed around very easily. Although a good climber and a good diver, its really not close to the best, and relys heavily on favorable enviornmental conditions. But if the elements are just right, the 'stang will often surprise me with sharp, darting banks. In these conditions she can be hard to pin down and can often "turn the six".

But the Mustang falls far short from the best and so do many, many planes. She seems to be slightly above average in nearly all categories, but falling short of a true grade-A fighter. But the Mustang is interesting and fun and adds depth and variety to our great love>>>IL-2...

Peace...

The only good Mustang is a burning mustang.

This mustang has fire on it's wings.  Oh, is that a 109 up in the corner?



Ouch! that's gotta hurt !  ;)



 ;)  BTW, I love 109s, awesome airplane.  I just couldn't resist.  :)
